Information on locking
On vehicles fitted with automatic gearbox, the selector lever must be moved
into the position P before unlocking.
The vehicle cannot be locked from the outside if the ignition has not been
turned off.
After locking the vehicle, 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 after the vehicle has been locked and the key with
which the vehicle was locked remains in the passenger compartment, the ve-
hicle will be automatically unlocked. After automatically unlocking, 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 after locking the vehicle and the key with which the
vehicle was locked remains in the luggage compartment, the lid is automatical-
ly unlatched (partially opened). After automatically unlocking, the turn signal
lights will flash four times. The boot lid remains unlatched (partially opened);
the other doors remain locked.

SafeLockRead and observe
and on page 54 first.
SafeLock prevents the doors from behind opened from inside as well as win-
dow operation. This makes it more difficult for anyone to break into the vehi-
cle.
Switching on
SafeLock switches on when the vehicle is locked.
This function is pointed out by the following message on the display of the in-
strument cluster after the ignition is switched off.
Observe SAFE interlock! Log book!CHECK SAFELOCK
Switch-on display
With the activated SafeLock, the warning light in the driver´s door flashes for 2
seconds in rapid succession, this then starts to flash at longer intervals.
Switching off ▶ By locking twice within 2 seconds.
▶ or: by deactivating the interior monitor and the towing protection
» page 58 .
The warning light in the driver´s door flashes fast for about 2 seconds, 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!

vated on the vehicle with an activated warning system. ▶ Opening the bonnet.
▶ Opening the boot lid.
▶ Opening the doors.
▶ Manipulation of the ignition lock.
▶
Towing the vehicle.

- 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.
