All turn signals flash twice to confirm that the vehicle has been unlocked and once to confirm that it
has been locked.
If the vehicle was unlocked and within the next few seconds no door or the rear hatch has been
opened, the vehicle is automatically locked again.
Unlocking and opening doors (Keyless Entry)
x Grasp the door handle of the driver or front passenger door so that you touch the unlocking sensor
surface (1).
x Open the door.
Closing and locking doors (Keyless Exit)
x Close the driver door.
x Touch the sensor surface in the door handle on the driver or front passenger door (2) once. The
vehicle is locked. The door being locked must be closed.
Unlocking and locking the rear hatch
If the vehicle is locked and if a valid vehicle key is within range ⇒ fig. 26 of the rear hatch, it unlocks
automatically when opened.
x Open and close the rear hatch as you would a standard rear hatch
The rear hatch locks automatically when it is closed except in the following situations:
x The vehicle is completely unlocked.
x When an authorized vehicle key is inside the vehicle.
Locking with a second vehicle key
If a remote control vehicle key is inside the passenger compartment, the vehicle can be locked from
the outside only if a second valid vehicle key is within range.
When the vehicle is locked from the outside, the keyless go (starting) function of any keys left in the
passenger compartment will be deactivated. All other functions (remote central locking and unlocking
as well as emergency starting) remain active and unchanged.
A key that was inside the vehicle when it was locked from the outside is reactivated:
x by pressing a button on the deactivated key.
x by pressing a door handle sensor when the deactivated key is outside of the vehicle, but within
range.
x by starting the engine with the starter button on the center console.
Automatic deactivation of sensors
If the vehicle has not been unlocked or locked for a longer period of time, the proximity sensors in the
passenger door are automatically deactivated.
If a sensor on the door handle of a locked vehicle is activated too often, for instance by a bush or
hedge that rubs against the vehicle, the sensors in the door handle on that side of the vehicle are
switched off for about 30 minutes.
The door handle sensors become active again if one of the following events occurs:
x 30 minutes have passed.
x OR: The vehicle is unlocked using the 0 button in the remote control vehicle key.
x OR: The rear hatch is opened.
x OR: The vehicle is mechanically unlocked with the vehicle key.

with a valid remote control vehicle key.
For vehicles with Keyless Access, the alarm can be deactivated by grasping one of the door handles
when a valid vehicle key is in range or by holding the remote control vehicle key to the right of the
steering column trim and pressing the starter
After the alarm has stopped and the vehicle is opened again in the same or a different area that
is protected by the alarm, the alarm is triggered again. For example, the alarm will sound again if the
rear hatch is opened after one of the doors has been opened.
The anti-theft alarm system is not activated when the vehicle is locked with the power lock
switch 1 on the inside of the driver or front passenger doors.

locked, but not the entire vehicle. Switching on the ignition deactivates the anti-theft alarm system and
activates the central locking button. To unlock the doors, use the central locking button or remote
control vehicle key.
If the vehicle battery is dead or weak, the anti-theft alarm system will not work properly.
