Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock funct ion locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has
exceeded approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) .
The car is un locked again once the ignition key
is removed. In addition, the veh icle can be un-
locked if the opening function in the power
locking system switch is used or one of the
door handles is pulled. The Auto Lock function
can be turned off or on in the MMI
c::>page36.
In the event of a crash with airbag dep loy-
ment, the doors automatically unlock to allow
access to the vehicle.
Anti -theft alarm system*
If the anti-theft alarm system detects a vehi-
cle break-in, audio and visual warning signa ls
are triggered .
The anti-theft alarm system turns on auto-
mat ically when you lock the vehicle. It deacti-
vates when unlocking using the remote con-
trol key or by touching the sensor on the door
handle (convenience key).
To switch the alarm off, press them button on
the remote control key or convenience key or
switch the ignition on . The alarm also stops
automatically after a certain amount of time.
Turn signals
The turn s ignals flash tw ice when you unlock
the vehicle and once when you lock the vehi-
cle.
If they do not flash, one of the doors, the lug-
gage compartment lid or the hood is not
locked or the ignition is still switched on (the
latter applies to vehicles with a convenience
key).
Unintentionally locking yourself out
The following situat ions prevent you from
locking your remote control key in the vehicle:
- The vehicle does not lock with the cent ral
locking switc h if the dr iver's door is open
c::>page3 5.
- On veh icles with a convenience key*, the lug-
gage compartment lid unlocks again after
clos ing if the most recent ly used key is in
the luggage compartment.
Do not lock your veh icle with the remote con-
trol key or convenience key* until all doors and
the luggage compartment lid are closed. This
helps to prevent from locking yourself out ac-
cidentally .

Tips
- Do not leave valuab les unattended in t he
vehicle. A locked vehicle is not a safe!
- If the LED in th e upper edge of the driv-

function in the power locking or the anti-
theft alarm system*. Have the problem
corrected by an authorized dealer or
qualif ied repair facility.
- The interior monitor ing of the anti-theft
alarm system* only operates correctly if
the windows and the sunroof* are
