>Via the remote control
> Using the door lock
> In cars with Comfort Access, via the handles
on the driver's door and the front passenger
door
At the same time as locking and unlocking via
the remote control:
> Welcome lights, the inte rior light, and the
courtesy lighting are switched on and off.
> Alarm system, refer to page 38, is armed or
disarmed.
Operating from inside

cally. In addition, the hazard warning flashers
and interior lamps come on.
