All keys, refer to page 28, fit the luggage-com-
partment lid lock.
Locking separately
Turn a key in the lock of the luggage compart-
ment lid to the right past a resistance point and
remove it in the horizontal position.
This locks the luggage compartment lid and
disconnects it from the central locking system.
If you then hand over the remote control without
the integrated key, refer to page 28, no access
is possible via the luggage compartment lid.
This is an advantage when using valet parking,
for example.
Unlocking again and opening manually
Turn the key toward the left up to the stop: the
luggage compartment lid opens.
If you use the lock to unlock the luggage
compartment lid while the alarm system
is armed, the alarm will be triggered. You should
therefore unlock the vehicle ahead of time. If the
alarm is inadvertently triggered: switch off the
alarm, refer to page 38.<
Closing
Make sure that the closing path of the
luggage compartment lid is clear, other-
wise injuries may result.<
The handle recesses on the interior trim of the
luggage compartment lid make it easier to pull
down.
