doors can only be opened from the
outside when the child-protection
locks are engaged (locked).

Soft Door Close System (if
equipped)
This system makes doors easier to shut
without having to slam if you do not
get it closed the first time. It increases
the vehicle's safety and comfort, in
particular for children in the back seat,
it is not necessary to slam the door
and it is also possible avoiding the risk
of travelling with the door ajar and
having to stop and close it.
The system uses a sensor to detect
the door ajar and an electric actuator
to close it. The sensor detects your
attempt to close the door and once
the latch catches the handle the
electric actuator pulls the door firmly
bringing the door back in the fully
closed position.
During the soft closing phase operated
by the system, it is possible to
intervene manually by opening or
closing the door.
If you are pushing the door hard
enough to close just like a regular
one, the system still works, but only
to check whether the door is properly
closed.
Before Starting
WARNING!
The system works properly if the ajar
door has a gap, between exterior door
panel surface and exterior bodyshell
surface in the latch area , of max 6
mm (0.23 in). In the presence of higher
gap, the system is not able to close
the door with the risk of travelling
with the door not completely closed or
even open.
