Your car is equipped with a central locking system.
The central locking system allows you to lock and unlock all doors, the fuel fill-
er flap and boot lid at the same time. The functions of the central locking sys-
tem can be individually adjusted » page 52.
After unlocking, depending on vehicle equipment and setting the following is
valid for the central locking. ▶ The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked.
▶ The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are unlocked.
▶ The interior lamp illuminates.
▶ The SafeLock system is switched off.
▶ The indicator light in the driver door stops flashing.
▶ The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated.
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.
▶ 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 - there is a danger of injury and accidents!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave persons 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 groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) have a negative effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ig-
nition lock.
■
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.

CAUTION■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 does react to the remote
control at less than around 3 metres away » page 171.
Note
The remote control will operate only when visual contact with the vehicle.
Unlocking / locking - KESSY
Fig. 37
The front door handle
Read and observe
and on page 50 first.
The KESSY system (Keyless Entry Start Exit System) enables unlocking and
locking of the vehicle without actively using the remote control key » Fig. 37.
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.
Locking
On vehicles fitted with automatic gearbox, the selector lever must be moved into the position P before unlocking.
The vehicle cannot be locked if the ignition has not been turned off.
After locking the car, it is not possible to unlock 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 only after locking the vehicle and the key with
which the vehicle was locked remains in the passenger compartment, the ve-
hicle will be unlocked automatically. After unlocking the vehicle again, the turn
signal lights will flash four times. If no door is opened within 45 seconds, the
vehicle is automatically locked again.
If the boot lid is closed only after locking the vehicle and the key with which
the vehicle was locked remains in the luggage compartment, the lid will be un-
locked (partially opened). The turn signal lights flash four times as an indica-
tion that the boot lid has been unlocked again. The luggage compartment lid
remains released (partially open).
The following message is shown in the information cluster display.Key in vehicle.KEY IN VEHICLE
CAUTION
■ Some types of gloves can affect the unlocking or locking device in the door
handle.■
After leaving the car there is no automatic locking.

» Fig. 38 can be used to unlock or lock the vehicle.
51Unlocking and opening
Page 54 of 208

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 – risk to life!
Safe securing system
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 pointed out by the following message on the display of the in-
strument cluster after switching out 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 safe lock 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 54.
The indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out
and starts to flash at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is switched off, the door
can be opened separately from the inside by a single pull on opening lever.
The SafeLock switches on the next time the vehicle is locked.
WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must
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
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
Individual settings
Read and observe
and on page 50 first.
The following functions of the central locking can be set in the Infotainment
» Owner´s Manual Infotainment , chapter CAR - Vehicle Settings or be set by a
specialist company.
Opening a single door
The function allows you to unlock only the driver's door and the fuel filler flap
with the radio remote control. KESSY makes possible the release of individual
doors as well as the fuel filler flap, depending on the area in which the key is
located. The other doors and the boot lid are only unlocked when the unlock-
ing 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 possible the re-
lease of both doors on one side as well as the fuel filler flap, depending on the
area in which the key is located. The other doors and the boot lid are only un-
locked when the unlocking is repeated.
Unlock all doors
The function allows you to unlock all doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap.
Automatic locking/unlocking
This function allows you to lock all doors and the boot lid from a speed of
about 15 km/h. The button in the handle of the boot lid is deactivated.
Renewed automatic unlocking of all doors as well as the luggage compartment
door when removing the ignition key or by opening any of the doors. In vehi-
cles with the system KESSY this is when any door is opened.
The vehicle can also be unlocked by pressing the central locking button
» page 51 .
