88 Unlocking and locking
WARNING
When the electric child safety function is activated, the sliding door can be
opened from the outside only.
Never leave children or disabled people alone in the vehicle if the doors
are to be locked. Otherwise they may be locked inside the vehicle. They
could be trapped in the car in an emergency and will not be able to get
themselves to safety. Individuals locked in the vehicle can be exposed to
very high or very low temperatures.
Depending on the time of the year, temperatures inside a locked and
closed vehicle can be extremely high or extremely low resulting in serious
injuries and illness or even death, particularly for young children.

Emergency locking and unlocking
WARNING
Careless and unsuitable locking, opening and closing of the tailgate can

window. The rear window could break and cause injury.

WARNING (continued)
Ensure the tailgate is locked after closing, otherwise, it may open unex-
pectedly while driving. A closed tailgate should be flush with the corre-
sponding parts of the bodywork.
Always keep the tailgate closed while driving to avoid toxic gases
entering the passenger compartment.
Do not open the tailgate when there is a load carrier installed. Likewise,
the tailgate cannot be opened when a load is attached to it, for example
bicycles. An open tailgate could close itself if there is an additional weight
on it. If necessary, press down on the tailgate and remove the load.
Close and lock both the tailgate and all the other doors when you are
not using the vehicle. Ensure that nobody remains inside the vehicle.
Never allow children to play inside or around the vehicle without super-
vision, especially if the tailgate is open. Children could enter the luggage
compartment, close the tailgate and become trapped. Depending on the
time of the year, temperatures inside a locked and closed vehicle can be
extremely high or extremely low resulting in serious injuries and illness or
even death, particularly for young children.
Never leave children or disabled people alone in the vehicle. If the
vehicle key or the central locking button is used, they may be locked in the
vehicle.
Caution
Before opening the tailgate, ensure that there is sufficient free space to open
and close it, for example if you are towing a trailer or in a garage.
