I Central Locking and Anti-Theft
Driver's door lock
The
lock/unlock signals are sent as input to the door module
from two microswitches on the lockcylinder. The driver's door
module carries out the locking
/ unlocking functions of the
driver's door through its final stage control.
The signal to lock the remaining doors, trunk or tailgate and
fuel flap is sent over the P-Bus to the GM and the passenger
door module. Activation of the passengers door
loclt is carried
out by the passenger door module. The rear doors, trunlt or
tailgate and fuel flap are
locked by the f~nal stage in the GM.
When
locked from the outside, all doors are set to the double
lock position and the GM will not carry out any unlock com-
mands from the central
loclc button or remote trunk release
button.
Selective unlocking
When unlocking with the key or the remote transmitter, the
first unloclcrequestwill only unlock the driver'sdoor. A second
unlock request will unlock the remaining doors, trunk or tail-
gate and fuel flap.
Trunk locking
I
The vehicle can be locked/unlocked from the trunlc loclc cylin-
der. The GM locks the trunk or tailgate, rear doors and fuel fill-
er. The locking command is passed over the P-Bus to the
respective door modules to lock the driver's and passengers
doors.
Locking the trunk and removing the key in the
hor~zontal posi-
tion will set the valet lock and prevent opening of the trunlt
with the central locking system.
Central locking switch
-
< The central locking master control switch (arrow) is located
in the center console behind the shifter.
The central locking button will only single
loclt the doors
and trunk. The filler flap remains unloclted for refueling pur-
poses.
If a door is opened from inside while centrally locked, the
remaining doors remain locked.
The open door can be relocked, when closed, by manually
locking or pressing the central locking button twice. This
synchronizes the door
locks.
