Important!
Separately locking the trunk with a key
will activate the starter lockout, even if
a door is left ajar. To be able to start
the engine, first close the door. Next
insert the key and turn it to the
unlocking position.
Notes:
In case of a malfunction in the central
locking system the doors and trunk can
be locked and unlocked individually.
To lock, turn key to position 3 or push
down lock buttons.
To unlock, turn key to position 2 or
pull up lock buttons.
The trunk lid can be lowered by using
the recessed grips in the trunk lid liner,
and closed with the dirt-free retracting
handle.
If the trunk lid cannot be closed, refer
to Trunk Lid, Manual Closing (see
Index).
Closing Windows from Outside
Turn key in door lock or trunk lock to
the locking position 3 and hold. The
windows begin to close after approx. 1
second.
Note:
If the closing procedure is interrupted,
it can only be continued by first turning
the key to the unlocked position (2) and
then again to the locking position (3).
Warning!
Never close the windows if there is
the possibility of anyone being
harmed by the raising window.
In case the closing procedure causes
potential danger, the closing
procedure can be immediately
interrupted by turning the key back
to the vertical position. However, the
windows can only be lowered using
the power window buttons inside the
car.
Emergency Unlocking in Case of
Accident
The doors unlock automatically a short
time after the roll bar is deployed in an
accident (this is intended to aid rescue
and exit). However, the key in the
steering lock must be in steering lock
positions 1, 2 or returned to position 0,
but not removed.
