WARNING
Opening and closing doors carelessly can cause serious injury.
● If the vehicle is locked from outside, the doors and windows cannot
be opened from the inside.
● Never leave children or disabled people alone in the car. They could
be trapped in the car in an emergency and will not be able to get them-
selves to safety.
● Depending on the time of the year, temperatures inside a locked and
closed vehicle can be extremely high or extremely low resulting in seri-
ous injuries and illness or even death, particularly for young children.
WARNING
Getting in the way of the doors and the panoramic sliding roof is danger-
ous and can lead to serious injury.
● Open and close the doors and the panoramic sliding roof only when
nobody is in the way.
CAUTION
When opening and closing in an emergency, carefully disassemble compo-
nents and then reassemble them carefully to avoid damage to the vehicle.
Safety First Operating instructions
Manually locking and unlocking the driver's door
In general, when the driver's door is locked all other doors are locked. Un-
locking manually only opens the driver's door. Please note the instructions
for the antitheft alarm ⇒ p age 74.
● Unfold the key shaft ⇒ p age 71.
● Insert the key shaft into the opening in the cover on the driver's door
⇒ f ig. 188


● Insert the key shaft into the lock cylinder to unlock or lock the vehicle.
Unlocking notes:
● The antitheft alarm will remain active when vehicles are unlocked. How-
ever, the alarm will not yet be triggered ⇒ p age 74.
● If the driver's door is opened, the alarm will be triggered.
● Switch the ignition on. When the ignition is switched on, the electronic
immobiliser recognises a valid vehicle key and deactivates the anti-theft
alarm system.
