Unlocking and locking
42
Safe securingThe central locking system is equipped with a safe securing
6) system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automatically blocked. It is not
possible to open the doors with the door handle either from the inside or from the
outside. This acts as an effective deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system by locking twice within 2 seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operating:

the indicator light in the driver door flas hes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and
starts to flash slowly after about 30 seconds,

is the filler flap locked.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is unlocked and
locked again.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, you can open the
vehicle from the inside by pulling on the door opening lever.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person and animals 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
The anti-theft alarm system* is also activated with the deactivated safe securing
system when locking the vehicle. The interior monitor* is however not activated.
Button for the central locking systemIf the vehicle was not locked from the outside, you can also unlock and lock it with the
rocker switch on the door opening lever of the driver or front passenger door even

 in the button
comes on.
Unlocking all doors and the boot lid– Press on the top part of the button fig. 27 . The symbol
 goes out in the button.
The following applies if you have locked yo ur vehicle using the central locking system:

It is not possible to open the doors or the boot lid from the outside (safety feature,
e.g. when stopping at traffic lights etc.).

You can unlock the doors individually from the inside and open them by pulling the
door opening lever.

If at least one door has been open ed, the vehicle cannot be locked.

In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors are
automatically unlocked from the inside in orde r to enable rescuers to gain access to
the vehicle.
By pressing and holding down the top and bottom part of the rocker switch in the
driver's door, you can conveniently close or open the windows.

minated. Low beam comes on only if the ignition is switched on. After switching off the ignition,
the low beam is switched off automatica
lly and only the side lights come on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in fig. 46 . The symbols which mark the switch positions are iden-
tical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with side lights on - risk of accident! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other
oncoming traffic. In this case, always switch on the low beam when it is dark or
if visibility is poor.
Note

An audible warning will sound if you wi thdraw the ignition key and open the
driver's door when the vehicle lights are still on.

The acoustic warning signal is switched off over the door contact when the driver's
door is closed (ignition off). The vehicle can be parked with the side lights on.

If the car is parked for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all lights, or
leaving only the parking lights switched on.

lenses is decisive.
 When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are free from
mist after a short period. The headlight lens es can possibly mist up at the border
areas.
 It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
 This mist has no influence on th e life of the lighting system.
