Indicator and warning
lamps
The concept
Indicator and warning lamps can light up in var-
ious combinations and colors in indicator area 1
or2.
Some lamps are checked for proper functioning
and thus come on briefly when the engine is
started or the ignition is switched on.
Explanatory text messages
Text messages at the lower edge of the Control
Display explain the meaning of the displayed
indicator and warning lamps.
You can call up more information, e.g. on the
cause of a malfunction and on how to respond,
via Check Control, page65.In urgent cases, this information will be shown
as soon as the corresponding lamp comes on.

Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for operation
whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:
>Doors
>Splitdoor
>Fuel filler flap
Operating from outside
>Via the remote control
>Via the door lock
*
>In cars with Comfort Access*, via the door
handles on the driver's and passenger's
sides.The anti-theft system is also operated at the
same time. It prevents the doors from being
unlocked using the lock buttons or door han-
dles. The remote control can also be used to
switch on/off the welcome lamps and interior
lamps. The alarm system
* is also activated or
deactivated, page31.
Operating from inside

Comfort Access*
Comfort Access enables you to enter your vehi-
cle without having to hold the remote control in
your hand. All you need to do is wear the remote
control close to your body, e.g. in your jacket
pocket. The vehicle automatically detects the
remote control within the immediate vicinity or
in the passenger compartment.
Functional requirements
>The vehicle or the splitdoor can only be
locked when the vehicle detects that the
remote control currently in use is outside of
the vehicle.
>The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.
>The engine can only be started when the
vehicle detects that the remote control is
inside the vehicle.
>The doors and splitdoor must be closed to be
able to operate the windows and glass sun-
roof
*.
Comfort Access supports the following func-
tions:
>Unlocking/locking the vehicle
>Unlocking the splitdoor by itself
>Starting the engine
Comparison to standard remote controls
Essentially, it makes no difference whether you
control the above-mentioned functions using
Comfort Access or by pressing the buttons on
the remote control for Comfort Access.
Instructions on opening and closing are found
starting on page26.
Special features regarding the use of Comfort
Access are described below.
If you notice a brief delay while opening or
closing the windows or glass sunroof, the
system is checking whether a remote control is
inside the vehicle. Repeat the opening or closing
procedure, if necessary.<
To unlock
Press button 1.
Depending on the setting, refer to Unlocking
mode on page27, only the driver's door or the
entire vehicle is unlocked.
Press the button again to lock the vehicle
again.<

refer to page28.
Locking
Press button 1.
Unlocking the splitdoor separately
Press the button on the outside of the splitdoor.
If the vehicle detects that a remote control
has been accidentally left inside the
locked vehicle's cargo bay after the splitdoor is
closed, the splitdoor will reopen slightly. The
hazard warning flashers flash and an acoustic
signal
* sounds.<
Windows and glass sunroof, electric*
If the engine is switched off, you can still operate
the windows and glass sunroof so long as a door
or the splitdoor has not been opened.
If the doors and splitdoor are closed again and
the remote control is located inside the vehicle,
the windows and the glass sunroof can be oper-
ated again.
Insert the remote control into the ignition lock to
be able to operate the windows or glass sunroof
when the engine is switched off and the doors
are open.
