Deactivating safe securing system
– Press button twice in 2 seconds. Further information
⇒page 42.
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked. If you unlock the car with button but do not open a door or
the boot lid within the next 30 seconds, the car locks again automatically.
This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally.
The safe securing system along with the anti-theft alarm system* are,
however, deactivated during these 30 seconds.
If the single door opening function has been activated on your car, you
unlock only the driver door by pressing button once and the complete
vehicle by pressing the button twice ⇒page 41.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the power seats and exterior mirrors
move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver
seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved automatically.
When the vehicle is unlocked or locked, the interior lights in the door
contact are automatically switched on or off.
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been
correctly locked. If the turn signal lights do not flash, check the doors,
bonnet and boot lid again to ensure that they are closed. If the doors, the
bonnet or the boot lid remain open when the anti-theft alarm system is
activated, the turn signal lights do not flash until after they have been
closed.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing
system is activated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as
it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the
inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get
into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
•Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are
closed and you have visual contact with the vehicle.
•Once in the car, you must not press the lock button of the master key
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being
inadvertently locked and, in addition, the anti-theft alarm system* being
switched on. Should this happen, press the unlock button
of the master
key.
Synchonisation of the remote control
If the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuating the remote control system
then it is possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle
are no longer synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-
operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
•Press any button on the remote control.
•Pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key
within 1 minute.
