The
central
locking
system will only
work
correctly
when
all
doors
and
the
tailgate are closed properly.
The vehicle
cannot
be locked with the key if the
driver door
is
open.
In vehicles with the Keyless Access locking and
starting
system,
the
vehicle
can only
be locked
when the ignition has been
switched off
and the
driver door is
closed.
If the vehicle
is
unlocked
and
not used for
a
long
time
(e.g
.
in your own garage) the vehicle battery
could
discharge or the
engine
may not
start.

A
WARNING
Improper use of the central locking system
could cause serious injury.
The central locking system locks all
doors. Locking the vehicle from the inside
may prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally and unauthorised persons
from entering the
vehicle.
However, locked
doors can delay assistance to passengers in-
side the vehicle in the event of an accident or
emergency.
Never leave children or people requiring
assistance alone in the vehicle. All doors can
be locked from the inside using the central
locking button. This may mean that people
lock themselves in the vehicle. People locked
in the vehicle may be subjected to very high
or very low temperatures.
Depending on the time of
year,
locked ve-
hicles can be subjected to very high or very
low temperatures. This can cause serious in-
juries and illness or fatalities, especially for
small children.
Never leave anyone inside a locked vehi-
cle. People in the vehicle could become trap-
ped in an emergency and may not be able to
get themselves to safety.
