The vehicle is equipped with a central locking system which makes it possible
to unlock / lock all the doors, the fuel filler flap and boot lid simultaneously.
The door unlocking can be adjusted individually » page 54.
The unlocking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing
twice.
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.
The locking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing once.
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
WARNING■ Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons (e.g. children) could lock the car, turn on the ignition or start
the engine - there is a 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.
Can be fatal at very high or very low temperatures!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the keyway clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust etc.) have a negative
effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ignition lock.

The boot lid (hereinafter as lid) can be operated electrically and manual in the
event of an emergency » page 61.
WARNING■
Ensure that the lock is properly engaged after closing the lid. Otherwise,
the lid might open suddenly while the vehicle is moving, even if the lid was
locked – risk of accident!■
Never drive with the lid open or unlatched, as otherwise exhaust gases
may get into the interior of the vehicle – risk of poisoning!
■
Only open and close the lid when no one is located in the opening/closing
range – risk of injury!
WARNING (Continued)■ Make sure that no limbs are caught or crushed when closing the lid - risk
of injury!■
When you open the boot lid make sure that there are no persons in the
opening area of the lid - there is a danger of injury!
CAUTION
■ Do not attempt to close the lid manually during the electrical closing process
- there is a risk of damaging the electric lid operation.■
When washing the vehicle in a car wash, we recommend that you lock the
vehicle (with the central locking button). In some car washes the boot lid might
open automatically due to the pressure action of the washing brushes - there
is a risk of damage to the vehicle interior.
CAUTION
■ Check that no objects are located in the opening/closing area which could
hinder the movement (e.g. cargo on the roof rack or on the trailer etc.) - there
is a risk of damage to the lid!■
In certain circumstances, if the lid is loaded (e.g. by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. Remove the snow from the lid to
re-enable the electrical operation.
■
If the lid closes automatically (e.g. under load of snow), you will hear an inter-
mittent beep.
■
The flap is always to be close before disconnecting the battery.

Route guidance
Introduction to the subject
A route is created by starting route guidance to a destination. Additional inter-
mediate destinations can be added to the route.
The route guidance takes place as follows
▶ Through graphical driving instructions on the Infotainment screen and in the
display of the instrument cluster.
▶ With nav. announcements.
Infotainment tries to allow for continued guidance even if the navigation data
is incomplete or there is no data at all for the given area.
The route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or change the route.
CAUTION
The nav. announcements provided may vary from the actual situations, e.g.
due to out-of-date navigation data.
