the current legal requirements. This certification forms the basis for official
approval for use in other countries.
Note
•The remote control is automatically disabled when the ignition is
switched on.•The function of the remote control may be impaired by interference from
other nearby radio signals (e.g. from a mobile phone or TV transmitter) if
these are in the same frequency range.Locking and unlocking the vehicleUnlocking the vehicle
– Press button ⇒fig. 77 for about 1 second. Locking the vehicle
– Press button for about 1 second.
Opening the tailgate
– Press button and hold for at least one second.
The turn signals will flash twice as confirmation when you unlock the vehicle.
The vehicle will be locked again automatically if you do not open one of the
doors or the tailgate within 60 seconds after unlocking the vehicle with
button . This function prevents the vehicle from remaining unlocked if the
unlocking button is pressed by mistake.
In vehicles with the
security central locking* feature, you can unlock just the
driver door and the tank flap by pressing button once or the whole vehicle
by pressing the button twice.
The turn signals flash once when the vehicle is locked to confirm that the
doors and tailgate are properly locked.
Moreover, apart from unlocking the vehicle, the seat* and mirror* memory
programmed in the key is activated. The driver seat and exterior mirrors will
be automatically adjusted to the positions stored in the memory.
The interior lights will automatically light up when the vehicle is unlocked and
go out when the vehicle is locked, provided that the switch is in the courtesy
light position.
WARNING
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in the vehicle if it is locked from
the outside and the anti-theft security system is enabled, as the doors and
windows cannot then be opened from the inside. Locked doors could delay
assistance in an emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.

If any of these areas are entered, the alarm will be triggered.
How is the alarm disabled?
The alarm can be switched off by unlocking the vehicle using the remote
control, or by switching on the ignition with the key, thus “disabling” the
alarm system. The alarm will also switch off when it comes to the end of its
cycle.
Turn sig nals
The turn signals flash briefly when the vehicle is locked to confirm that the
doors, the engine bonnet and the tailgate are properly closed and locked.
If the turn signals do not flash, check the doors, the bonnet and the tailgate
to make sure they are properly closed. The turn signals will also flash briefly
if one of the doors or the tailgate or engine bonnet is closed after the alarm
system has been enabled.
LED
When the vehicle is locked, the LED on the top of the driver door trim will flash
rapidly for about 30 seconds and then continue flashing slowly. This is to
indicate that the anti-theft alarm system (including the interior monitoring
and tow-away protection ) is operative. If the LED lights up continuously for
about 30 seconds when the vehicle is locked instead of flashing, this means
the alarm system is not working properly.Note
•To make sure that the alarm is fully operative when leaving the vehicle,
briefly check that all the doors and windows and the sunroof* are closed.
•The alarm is triggered immediately if one of the battery cables is discon-
nected while the alarm system is enabled.Interior monitoring*

The interior monitoring triggers an alarm if it detects move-
ment inside the vehicle.You should disable the interior monitoring if there is a possibility
that the alarm could be triggered, e.g. by a pet or by an object
moving inside the vehicle ⇒ . The tow-away protection feature,
which is integrated into the alarm system, should be disabled if the
vehicle is being towed or transp orted (e.g. by rail or ship).

152•Ensure that appliances connected to the socket are secure to prevent
them from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking or
an accident. This could result in severe injury or loss of life ⇒page 16,
“Storing objects”.•Never spill liquid over the socket – there is a risk of death. If any mois-
ture enters the socket, ensure that it is thoroughly dry before using.•Improper use of the sockets or electrical accessories can lead to serious
injuries or cause a fire, with the resultant risk of injury.•Children must never be left alone in the vehicle with the engine
running. They could cause an accident.•Appliances connected to the socket do not behave in the same way as
when they are connected to the mains power supply. They may overheat
during use and cause injury.•When using adapters and extension leads, the childproof safety device
on the 230 volt socket is disconnected and the socket is live. Risk of injury!.•Never insert objects which conduct electricity, such as a needle, in the
pins of the 230 volt socket. There is a risk of death.•Always switch off electrical appliances connected to the socket if the
inverter goes off as a result of overheating. Failure to comply could result
in injuries.Caution
•The instructions for handling appliances connected to the socket must be
observed.•If the power consumption of the appliances connected exceeds 150
watts, the socket inverter will overheat. If the temperature exceeds a certain
value, the inverter will switch off. It may also switch off if the outside temper-
ature is very high, even if the power consumption is normal. The inverter will
switch on again automatically after it has cooled down. Appliances connected to the socket, and which have been left switched on, will automat-
ically come back on
⇒.
•Do not connect neon lamps to the socket. For technical reasons, these
could break down.•Do not connect 115 volt appliances to the 230 volt power socket, as they
could be damaged. If you have any queries, please check the manufacturer’s
label for details of the power supply accepted by the appliance.•With some adapters, for example for laptops, their built-in overload
disconnection system prevents the equipment from switching on in the event
of an excessive star t-up current. In this case, disconnect the adapter from the
power supply and try to reconnect after ten seconds.Note
•Non-insulated equipment may cause interference to the radio or vehicle
electronics.•The Europlug socket has a built-in childproof device and only carries live
current when the Europlug is correctly plugged in.•Some appliances may not operate correctly in the absence of adequate
power (watts).•In some countries this socket is 115 volts. Therefore the socket should
have a different inverter installed at the factory. You can obtain retrofit kits
from your Authorised Technical Service. Do not connect 115 Volt appliances
to the 230 Volt socket.•The use of electrical equipment in the vicinity of the aerial in the rear
window may cause interference to the reception of stations broadcasting in
AM.

Vehicle maintenance and cleaning
210Vehicle exterior maintenanceAutomatic car wash tunnel
The vehicle can normally be washed without problem in an
automatic car wash.The vehicle paintwork is so durable that the vehicle can normally be washed
without problems in an automatic car wash tunnel. However, the paintwork
wear depends to a large extent on the kind of the car wash tunnel, the
brushes used, its water filtering and the type of cleaning and preservative
products.
Before going through a vehicle wash, be sure to take the usual precautions
such as closing the windows and sunroof.
If the vehicle has special accessories such as spoilers or a roof rack or two-
way radio aerial, etc., it is advisable to consult the car wash tunnel operator.
After washing, the brakes could take some time to respond as the brake discs
and pads could be wet, or even frozen in winter. Dry the brakes by braking
several times.
WARNING
Water, ice and salt on the brakes can reduce braking efficiency. Risk of
accident.Washing by handVehicle washing
– First soften the dirt with plenty of water and rinse it off. – Clean your vehicle from top to bottom with a soft sponge, a glove
or a brush. Use very light pressure.
– Rinse the sponge or glove often with clean water.
– Special car shampoo should only be used for very stubborn dirt.
– Leave the wheels, sill panels etc. until last, using a different sponge or glove.
– Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with water.
– Dry the vehicle surface gently with a chamois leather.
–In cold temperature , dry the rubber seals and their surfaces to
prevent them from freezing. Apply silicone spray to the rubber
seals.
After washing
– After washing, avoid sudden and sharp braking. Dry the brakes by braking several times ⇒page 192, “Braking capacity and
braking distance”.
WARNING
•Wash your vehicle with the ignition switched off.•Protect your hands and arms from cuts on sharp metal edges when
cleaning the underbody, the inside of the wheel housings etc. Risk of
injury.•Water, ice and salt on the brakes can reduce braking efficiency. Risk of
accident.
