Private Locking
The trunk lid and rear seat backrests can be
locked using the private locking function, e.g.
when the vehicle is left at a workshop or with
a valet. This function prevents the trunk lid
from being opened and locks the rear seat
backrests in the upright position.
The function button for pri-
vate locking is located in the
center display's Function
view. Depending on the cur-
rent status of the lock,
Private Locking Unlocked
or
Private Locking Locked
will be displayed.

Activating and deactivating private
locking
Private locking is activated using the function
button in the center display and a PIN code.
NOTE
For the valet lock function to be activated
the car must be in at least ignition mode I.
Two codes are used for private locking:
A security code, which is created the first
•
time the function is used.
A PIN code, which is changed each time
•
the function is activated.
Entering security code before initial
use
The first time the function is used, a security
code must be selected. This code can then be
used to deactivate private locking if the
selected PIN code has been forgotten or lost.
The security code functions as a PUK (secur-
ity) code for all PIN codes used for private
locking.
Save the security code in a safe place.
To create a security code:
1.
Tap the button for private locking in Func-
tion view.
> A pop-up window will appear.
2. Enter the desired security code and press
Confirm
.
> The security code is saved. The private
locking function is now ready for activa-
tion.
