WARNING
● Locking from the outside carelessly or without good visibility may
lead to bruising, particularly in the case of children.
● When locking a vehicle, never leave children unaccompanied inside,
as from the outside it will be difficult to provide assistance if required.
● Having the doors locked prevents an intrusion from getting in, for ex-
ample when stopped at a traffic light.
Note
For anti-theft security, only the driver door is fitted with a lock cylinder.
Safe security system*
This is an anti-theft device which consists of a double lock
for the door locks and a deactivation function for the lug-
gage compartment in order to prevent a forced entry (de-
pending on the country).
Activation
The “safe” system is activated when the vehicle is locked using the key or
the remote control.
To activate it with the key, rotate once it is inserted in the door lock cylinder
in the locking direction.
To activate the system using the remote control, press the lock button once
on the remote.

“Safe” status
On the driver door, there is a visible warning lamp which shows the “Safe”
system status.
We will know that “Safe” system is activated by the flashing warning lamp.
The indicator will flash on all vehicles, fitted and nor fitted with an alarm,
until they unlock.
Remember:
Safe activated with or without an alarm: Warning lamp flashes continuous-
ly.
Safe deactivated without an alarm: The indicator remains off.
Safe deactivated with an alarm: The indicator remains off.
WARNING
No one should remain inside the vehicle if the “Safe” mechanism is acti-
vated because opening the doors will not be possible in case of emergen-
cy neither from the inside nor the outside. Danger of death. Passengers
could become trapped inside in case of emergency.
Selective unlocking system*
This system allows to unlock either just the driver door or all
the vehicle.
Driver door unlock button
Unlock once. Use either the key or the remote control.

The central lock button is still operative when the ignition is switched off.
Except when the Safe security system is activated.
Please note the following if you lock your vehicle with the central lock but-
ton: ●
Locking the doors and tailgate prevents access from the outside (for
safety reasons, e.g. when stopped at a traffic light).
● The driver door cannot be locked. This avoids the user from forgetting
his key inside the vehicle.
● All doors can be locked separately from inside the vehicle. Do this by
pulling the door release lever once.
WARNING
● If the vehicle is locked, children and disabled people may be trapped
inside it.
● Repeated operation of central locking will prevent the central locking
button from working for a few seconds. Then, it can only be unlocked in
case it has been previously locked. After few seconds, the central locking
becomes operative again.
● The central locking button is not operative when the vehicle is locked
from the outside (with the remote control or the key).
Note
● Vehicle locked, button.

Anti-theft alarm system*
Description of anti-theft alarm system*
The anti-theft alarm triggers if unauthorised movements are
detected around the vehicle.
The anti-theft alarm makes it more difficult to break into the vehicle or steal
it. The system will initiate acoustic and optical warning signals when your
vehicle is tried to be forced.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically connected on locking the vehi-
cle. For this, either rotate the key in the locking position or press button
2 on the radio-frequency remote control*. The system is immediately acti-
vated and the turn signal light located on the driver door will flash along
with the turn signals, indicating that the alarm and the locking security sys-
tem (double lock) have been turned on.
If any of the doors or the bonnet are open, they will not be included in the
protection zones of the vehicle when the alarm is connected. If the door or
the bonnet are subsequently closed, they will be automatically included in
the protection areas of the vehicle and the turn signals will flash according-
ly when the doors close.
● The turn signal light will flash twice on opening and deactivating the
alarm..
● The turn signal light will flash once on closing and activating the alarm.
When does the system trigger an alarm?
The system triggers an alarm if the following unauthorised actions are car-
ried out when the car is locked: ●
Opening of vehicle with mechanical key without switching ignition on
within the next 15 seconds
● Opening a door
● Opening the bonnet
● Opening the tailgate
● Ignition switched on with a non-validated key.
● Movements in the driving compartment (vehicles with a volume sensor)
● Towing of the vehicle 1)
● Tilt angle (tow-away protection) 1)
● Undue manipulation of the alarm
● Battery handling
The acoustic signals sound and the turn signals flash for approx. 30 sec-
onds. This may be repeated up to 10 times depending on the country.
Opening all the doors in manual mode
In vehicles without alarm, when opening the driver door manually all the
doors are opened.
How to switch the alarm off
To deactivate the anti-theft alarm, turn the key to the opening direction,
open the door and switch the ignition on, or press the unlocking button
on the remote control.
In vehicles equipped with an anti-theft alarm system, you have 15 seconds
to insert the key in the ignition lock and activate the ignition if the vehicle is
opened using the driver door key.
Otherwise, the alarm will trigger for 30 sec. and the ignition will be blocked.

Unlocking and locking
Note
● After 28 days, the indicator light will be switched off to prevent the bat-
tery from exhausting if the vehicle has been left parked for a long period of
time. The alarm system remains activated.
● The alarm will trigger again if attempts are made to open another protec-
tion zone.
● The alarm system can be activated or deactivated using the remote con-
trol. ⇒ page 82.
Interior monitoring and anti-towing alarm*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* which detects unauthorized vehicle entry by means
of ultrasound.
Activation
– It is connected automatically when the anti-theft alarm is acti-
vated.
Deactivation
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically 1)
or by press-
ing the
button on the remote control.
– Press the button
on the remote control twice. The volumetric
sensor and tilt sensors will be deactivated. The alarm system re-
mains activated. The interior monitoring and the anti-towing alarm are automatically switch-
ed on again next time the vehicle is locked.
The interior monitoring and anti-towing alarm (tilt sensor) are automatically
switched on when the anti-theft alarm is switched on. In order to activate it,
all the doors and the tailgate must be closed.
If you wish to disconnect the interior monitoring and the anti-towing sys-
tem, it must be done each time that the vehicle is locked; if not, they will
connect automatically.
The interior monitoring and the anti-towing system should be disconnected
if animals are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise, their movements will
trigger the alarm) or when, for example, the vehicle is transported or has to
be towed with only one axle on the ground.
False alarms
The interior monitoring only operates correctly if the vehicle is completely
closed. Please observe legal requirements when doing so.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:
●
opened windows (partially or fully)
● panorama/tilting sunroof open (partially or completely).
● movement of objects inside the vehicle, such as loose papers, items
hanging from the rear view mirror (air fresheners), etc.
1)
The time period from when the door is opened until the key is inserted in the contact
should not exceed 15 sec., otherwise the alarm will be triggered.
