You can lock or unlock the doors and the
tailgate from inside using the central lock-
ing or unlocking switch. This can be useful,
for example, if you want to lock the vehicle

locked with the central locking or unlock-
ing switch.
Warning!

SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*
from the starter switch, take it with you, and

tended in the vehicle, or with access to an
