● lock on driver door (emergency opening ⇒ p age 97) or
● interior central locking switch ⇒ p age 93.

When you lock the vehicle with the key, the doors and the rear lid are
locked. When you open the door, you can either unlock only the driver door,
or all the vehicle doors. To select the required option, use Easy Connect*

Central locking (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks the doors and the rear lid when the vehicle ex-
ceeds a speed of about 15 km/h (10 mph).
The vehicle is unlocked again when the ignition key is removed. Alternative-
ly, the vehicle can also be unlocked via the central locking switch or by pull-
ing one of the inside door handles. The Auto Lock function can be switched
on and off on the sound system or on the Easy Connect* system
⇒ p age 92.
In the event of an accident in which the airbags inflate, the doors will be au-
tomatically unlocked to facilitate access and assistance.

driver that when the vehicle is closed from the outside, the anti-theft securi-

locked:

next two seconds. If necessary, remove the protective cover on the driver

seconds.
The flashing frequency of the diode in the door sill immediately confirms
the process. Initially, the diode flashes in a fast sequence for a brief period,
then it stops for approximately 30 seconds and, lastly continues flashing
slowly.
Anti-theft alarm system*
If the anti-theft alarm system senses interference with the vehicle it triggers
an audible and visible alarm.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically switched on when locking the
vehicle. It switches off when the vehicle is unlocked from a distance.
When the driver door is unlocked with the key, you should switch on the ig-
nition within 15 seconds. Otherwise the alarm will be triggered. On some
export versions, the alarm is triggered immediately when you open a door.
