The following applies if you have locked your vehicle using the button

It is not possible to open the doors or the boot lid from the outside (safety feature,


You can unlock the doors individually from the inside and open them by pulling the
door opening lever.

As long as one door is opened, the doors cannot be locked in order to avoid inad-
vertently locking the key in the vehicle.

In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors are
automatically unlocked from the inside in order to enable rescuers to gain access to
the vehicle.

WARNING
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched off. All the
doors and the boot lid are locked. Children should never be left unattended in
the vehicle since it is difficult to provide assistance from the outside when the
doors are locked. Locked doors make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
The door opening lever and the button for the central locking system do not operate if
the safe securing system is activated.
Emergency locking of the doors
An emergency locking mechanism is located on the rear side of the doors which have
no locking cylinder; it is only visible after opening the door.
