unlocked.
▶ A double audible signal sounds additionally on vehicles which are fitted with
the anti-theft alarm system.
▶ The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are unlocked.
▶ The interior lamp illuminates.

49Unlocking and opening

After locking, depending on vehicle equipment and setting, the following is
valid for the central locking. ▶ The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been
locked.
▶ An audible signal sounds additionally on vehicles which are fitted with the
anti-theft alarm system.
▶ The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are locked.
▶ The interior lamp goes out.
▶ The SafeLock system is switched on.
▶ The warning light in the driver door begins flashing.
▶ The anti-theft alarm system is activated.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle doors have been
locked, the turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Protection against unwanted vehicle unlocking
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
45 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the SafeLock system
or anti-theft alarm system will be switched on.WARNING■ Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons, such as children, for example, could lock the car, turn on the
ignition or start the engine - danger of injury and accidents!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely in-
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. These individuals
might not be able to leave the vehicle on their own or to help themselves.
At very high or very low temperatures can be fatal!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) impair the function of the locking cylinder and ignition lock.
■
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.

■
Operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal inter-
ference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same fre-
quency range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).■
The operating range of the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range
of the remote control can be reduced if the batteries are weak.
■
The battery must be replaced if the central locking only reacts to the remote
control at less than around 3 metres away » page 177.
Note
The remote control will only operate when in visual contact with the vehicle.

The sensors for unlocking or locking are located in the handle of the front
door.
Unlocking
Locking
When unlocking or locking the vehicle, the key must be at a maximum distance
of approximately 1.5 m from the front door handle.

After locking the car, it is not possible to unlock it within the next 2 seconds by touching the door handle. This can be used to check whether the vehicle is
locked.
Protection against inadvertently locking the key in the vehicle
If one of the doors is closed after locking the vehicle and the key with which
the vehicle was locked remains in the passenger compartment, the vehicle is
automatically unlocked. After unlocking the vehicle again, the turn-signal
lights flash four times. If no door is opened within 45 seconds, the vehicle is
automatically locked again.

Locking/unlocking the vehicle with the central locking buttonFig. 38
Central locking button
Read and observe and on page 50 first.
When the vehicle has not been locked from outside and no door is open, the 
button » Fig. 38 can be used to unlock or lock the vehicle.
The locking is shown by the illuminated symbol .
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched off.
The following applies after locking. ▶ Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.
▶ The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
WARNINGDoors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency – danger to life!
SafeLock
Read and observe
and on page 50 first.
As soon as the vehicle is locked from the outside, the safe lock prevents open-
ing the doors from the inside.
This function is highlighted by the following message on the display of the in-
strument cluster after switching off the ignition.
Check SAFELOCK! Owner´s manual!CHECK SAFELOCKAfter locking the vehicle, the warning light in the driver's door flashes for
around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it begins to flash evenly at
longer intervals.
Switching off
The SafeLock can be switched off in one of the following ways. ▶ By locking twice within 2 seconds.
▶ By disabling the button for interior monitoring and anti-towing » page 55.
The warning icon in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out
and starts to flash regularly at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the vehicle is locked and the SafeLock system is switched off, the door can
be opened separately from the inside by a single pull on the opening lever.
The SafeLock switches on the next time the vehicle is locked.WARNINGIf the car is locked and the SafeLock system activated, no-one may remain
in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or open a
window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescu-
ers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!

located. The other doors and the boot lid are only unlocked when unlocking is
repeated.
Unlocking a vehicle side door
This function enables you to unlock both doors on the driver's side and the
fuel filler flap with the radio remote control unit. KESSY makes it possible to
unlock both doors on one side as well as the fuel filler flap, depending on the
