• Call for medical help immediately you sus­
pect that someone has swallowed a battery.
A WARNING . .,~
Improper or unsupervised use of the vehicle
key can cause accidents or injuries.
• Always take all vehicle keys with you ev­
ery time you leave the vehicle. Children or
unauthorised persons could lock the doors
and tailgate, start the engine or switch on the
ignition and thus operate electrical equip­
ment, such as the electric windows.
• Never leave children or people requiring
assistance alone in the vehicle. They could
become trapped in the vehicle in an emergen­
cy and may not be able to get themselves to
safety. Depending on the time of year, for ex­
ample, locked vehicles can be subjected to
very high or very low temperatures. This can
cause serious injuries and illness or fatali­
ties, especially for small children.
• Never remove the vehicle key from the ig­
nition Jock when the vehicle is in motion. The
steering Jock may be activated and you will
no longer be able to steer the vehicle. Fig. 23 Vehicle ke y w ith alarm butto n

The central locking system
will only work correctly
when all doors and the tailgate are closed properly.
The
vehicle cannot be locked with the key if the
driver door is open .
In vehicles with the Keyless Access locking and
starting system, the
veh icle can only be locked
when the ignition has been switched
off and the
driver door is closed .
If the vehicle is unlocked and not used for a long
time (e.g. in your own garage) the
vehicle battery
could discharge
or the engine may not start.

A WARNING
Improper use of the central locking system
could cause serious injury.
• The central locking system locks all
doors. Locking the vehicle from the inside
may prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally and unauthorised persons
from entering the vehicle . However, locked
doors can delay assistance to passengers in­
side the vehicle in the event of an accident or
emergency.
• Never leave children or people requiring
assistance alone in the vehicle. All doors can
be
locked from the inside using the central
locking button. This may mean that people
lock themselves in the vehicle. People locked
in the vehicle may be subjected to very high
or very low temperatures.
• Depending on the time of year, locked ve­
hicles can be subjected to very high or very
low temperatures. This can cause serious in­
juries and illness or fatalities, especially for
small children.
• Never leave anyone inside a locked vehi­
cle. People in the vehicle could become trap­
ped in an emergency and may not be able to
get themselves to safety.
Description of the central locking system
r-('n First read and observe the introductory
L-Jr=JJ information and safety warnings & on
page 46.
The central locking system enables you to lock and
unlock
all the doors, the tailgate and tank flap from
one central point:
• From outside the vehi cle with the vehicle key
~page 47.
• From outside the vehicle with Keyless-Access
~page 49.
• From inside the vehicle with the central locking
button ~page 48.
Certain central locking functions can be activated
or deactivated in the infotainm ent system using the
@ill button and the~ and (Open and Clos e) function
buttons =>page 31, or the vehicle can be taken to a~
qualifi ed work shop .
