the opening lever for one of the front doors switches
off the central locking function. Individual doors can be
unlocked by pulling the opening handle of one of the
rear doors.
If a power supply is not present (blown fuse, battery
disconnected, etc.) it is, however, possible to lock the
doors manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the doors will be locked
automatically if the setup menu function has been
selected (see “Multifunction display” paragraph in this
section).

The LED comes on in the following cases:
❒after each door lock command generated by the
button D or by button
Áin the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h (if activated
from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of the load
compartment doors is opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or centralised) or an
unlocking request from the remote control/door catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking buttons A-B fig. 118;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside
the passenger compartment if there has been a break-in
attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left
unattended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Therefore, before engaging
the system check that there is no one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can only be disengaged by using the metal insert
in either of the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device only remains
on for the rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when pressing the remote control button
Ábriefly
twice, fig. 115.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and the flashing of the LED on
button A-fig. 118 on the dashboard.
If one of the doors is not perfectly shut, the dead lock
device will not be activated, thus preventing a person
getting into the car through the open door and, on
shutting it, remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.

MOVING FOOTBOARD fig. 122
(for versions/markets where provided)
When the side door of the passenger compartment or
luggage compartment is opened, a footboard emerges
from the lower part of the floorpan to make it easier to
board the vehicle.

moving the vehicle in any way, ensure
that the footboard is fully stowed away.

MECHANISM fig. 128
Switches on the inner armrest of the driver’s door
control the following with the ignition key in the
MAR-ON position:
A to open/close the front left window;
B front right window opening/closing.
Continuous automatic operation
All versions are equipped with automatic raising and
lowering of the front, driver’s side window.
Keep one of the buttons pressed for longer than half
a second to operate the automatic continuous window
operation function. The window stops when it reaches
the end of travel position or when the button is pressed
again. The opening angle of the two doors may be increased
for more convenient loading and unloading. To carry out
this operation, press the button A-fig. 127; this allows
the doors to be opened to about 180 degrees.
This spring loaded system has activation
forces that were designed for optimum
comfort. Accidental knocks or a strong gust of
wind may release the springs and close the
doors spontaneously.
WARNING
With the doors opened to 180 degrees,
no locking system is effective. Do not
use this opening with the vehicle parked on
a gradient or when it is windy.
