Coolant temperature/level
The warning lamp lights up for a few seconds as a functional check
when ignition is switched on.
If the warning lamp does not go out, or lights up or flashes while
driving the coolant temperature is too high or the coolant level too
low. An acoustic signal will sound three times as an additional
warning:
Stop immediately, stop engine and check level. If necessary add
coolant. The coolant type is detailed in the "Coolant system"
chapter.
If the coolant level is in order the trouble may be due to failure of
the radiator fan. In this case, check radiator fan fuse and replace if
necessary.
If the warning lamp does not go out even though coolant level and
fan fuse are in order,d do
o nno
ot
t ddr
ri
iv
ve
e oon
n
. Call in expert assistance.
If the trouble is located only in the radiator fan and the coolant
level is in order and temperature warning lamp is off – you may
drive on to the nearest Technical Service Centre. To make use of the
air stream for cooling do not let engine idle nor drive very slowly.

Locking and unlocking the vehicle
When the front doors are locked or unlocked, all the other doors,
the tank flap and the tailgate are locked or unlocked by the central
locking system.
The central locking system is equipped with an added security
mechanism: Once the vehicle has been locked from the outside,
the internal door locking levers can immediately be moved freely.
In other words they are disengaged from the outside handles. The
doors can no longer be opened from the inside. This makes
breaking in difficult.
The system may be activated from outside both with the key and
the radio-frequency remote control*.
The warning lamp on the driver’s door covering will begin to f fl
li
ic
ck
ke
er
r
to show that the security system is activated.
K
Unlocking
To unlock the vehicle, turn the key in a front door or the tailgate
lock to the open position.
N No
ot
te
e
When you open the vehicle the inside lights in door contact position will
come on for about 20 seconds.
If the central locking should fail, all locks – with the exception of the tank
flap – can be operated normally. (If the car was simply locked, simply turn
the key twice in the door locks). Tank flap emergency release

Door release lever
The doors and the tailgate can also be locked with the driver’s door
release lever. To do this, pull or press the lever in the direction
shown (see illustration). However, the added security mechanism,
the passenger door and rear door release levers do not affect the
other locking areas. These levers only lock or unlock the one door.
The driver’s door cannot be locked by pressing the locking knob
down as long as the door is open. This is to prevent you from
locking yourself out.
The doors can be opened with the release levers. First press the
release lever in and then pull to open the door.If the driver’s door isn no
ot
t
properly closed (on the catch), it is not
possible to lock the vehicle. The driver’s door must be opened and
then closed again properly. The doors can then be locked.

If the vehicle is locked using the central locking button, it is possible to
open the doors separately. To do this, pull the door handle untilthe door
opens.
The button will also function when the ignition is switched off.
Child-proof catch
The rear doors also have child-proof catches which is operated via
a lever in the doors. When the lever is moved up (e.g. using the
vehicle key
⇒ fig. 64), the child-proof catch is engaged. The
interior lock release is then inoperative and the door can only be
opened from outside as long as the door is not locked from the
inside with the door release lever
⇒"Doors, central locking"

Single door opening*
The central locking system can be modified to open only the
driver’s door, the passenger door or the tailgate without unlocking
the other areas.
Technical Service Centres will be happy to provide further details,
and/or to activate this possibility.
