IMPORTANT With central locking on, pulling the internal
handle of one of the front doors will unlock that door.
Individual doors can be unlocked by pulling the internal
handle of one of the rear doors.
If a power supply is not present (blown fuse, battery dis-
connected, etc.) it is, however, possible to lock the doors
manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the doors will be locked au-
tomatically if the setup menu function has been selected
(see “Multifunction display” paragraph in this section).
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking button A-fig. 87;
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 en-
gaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left unat-
tended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from inside
the vehicle. Before getting out of the car, please
therefore check that there is no-one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can be disengaged only by inserting the key in ei-
ther of the door locks as described previously: in
this case the device remains active only for the
rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when you double-tap button Áon the remote con-
trol fig. 85.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the direction
indicators and the flashing of the LED on button A-fig. 87
on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not closed correctly, the
dead lock device will not activate, thus preventing a per-
son from getting stuck inside the passenger compartment
by entering the car through, and then closing, the open
door.

feature switches A-fig. 92 for controlling the correspond-
ing window.
Press button A-fig. 93 to disable the controls located on

stages.
On such occasions, it is necessary to carry out the system
restore procedure, acting as follows:
❒open the windows;
or
❒turn the ignition key to STOP and then to MAR.
If no malfunction is present, the window returns to its nor-
mal operation automatically.
