● In the event of an accident in which the airbags inflate, doors locked
from the inside will be automatically unlocked to facilitate access and assis-

WARNING
The central locking switch is still operative when the ignition is switched
off. This switch can be used to automatically lock all the doors and the
tailgate. However, since this makes it difficult to enter the vehicle from
the outside, you should never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Locked doors could delay assistance in an emergency, potentially putting
lives at risk.
Note
The central locking switch inside the vehicle will not be operative if the anti-
theft mechanism has been enabled.
Security central locking*
The security central locking feature allows you to only unlock
the driver door and the tank flap. All other doors and the
tailgate remain locked.
Unlocking the driver door and tank flap
– Turn the key once to the unlock position, or press the unlock
button on the remote control once.
