Unlocking front doors
Both front doors can be unlocked by using the key. Turning the key 1/4 turn counterclockwise lifts the
lock buttons on the window ledge and the door can be opened by pulling the handle.
Locking doors
All doors can be locked by depressing the lock buttons. To lock the front doors, press down the lock
button and keep the door handle pulled out while shutting the door.
To lock the rear doors, press down the lock button and shut the door. It is not necessary to keep the door
handle pulled out.
To open a rear door from the inside, the lock button must first be pulled up.
The lock buttons should not be in the down position during driving. In case of an accident, it
prevents aid from entering the vehicle.
In wintertime the door locks should be "lubricated" with a suitable agent to prevent freezing. If the lock
is frozen, be careful not to break the key in the lock. Thaw the ice by heating the lock or the key.
