WARNING

Stop the vehicle at a safe distance away from moving traffic and on a suitable surface .
Switch on the hazard warning lights using the button Centre console.
Switch on the electronic parking brake Electronic parking brake.
Move the gear lever to neutral position or move the selector lever to P, Manual gearbox:
selecting a gear and DSG® dual clutch gearbox.
Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition Starting and stopping the engine.
Ensure that all occupants exit the vehicle and go straight to a safe place away from
moving traffic, e.g. behind the safety barrier. Heed the country-specific regulations
concerning high-visibility waistcoats.
Take all vehicle keys with you when you leave the vehicle.
Place the warning triangle in position to draw the attention of other road users to your
vehicle.
Allow the engine to cool down and seek expert assistance.
Making you and your vehicle safe
Observe any legislation concerning the safety of a broken-down vehicle. For example, many
countries stipulate that you have to switch on the hazard warning lights and wear a high-visibility
vest ⇒ Equipment for an emergency.
Checklist
To ensure your own safety and that of your passengers, observe the following actions in the
specified order ⇒:
When the hazard warning lights are switched on, for example if you are being towed, you can still
indicate a change in direction or lane change by operating the turn signal. The warning lights will be
interrupted temporarily.
Examples of when to switch on the hazard warning lights:
•When traffic ahead suddenly starts moving more slowly or you reach the tail end of a traffic jam,
to will warn vehicles behind you.
•When there is an emergency.
•When the vehicle breaks down.
•When tow-starting or towing.
Always follow local regulations for the use of the hazard warning lights.
If the hazard warning lights are not working, you must use an alternative method of drawing
attention to the broken-down vehicle. This method must comply with traffic legislation.
Any broken-down vehicle poses a high accident risk for the vehicle occupants and for
other road users.
•Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and when safe to do so.
•Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic.
•Switch on the hazard warning lights.
•Never leave other persons alone in the vehicle, particularly children or people requiring
assistance. This applies in particular when the doors are locked. People locked in the
vehicle may be subjected to very high or very low temperatures.
WARNING
Ignoring any of the items on this important safety checklist can lead to accidents and
severe injuries.
•Always follow the instructions in the checklist and observe the general safety
procedures.
WARNING
The components of the exhaust system become very hot. This can cause fires and serious
injuries.
•Park the vehicle so that no part of the exhaust system can come into contact with any
inflammable material underneath the vehicle, e.g. dry grass, fuel.
WARNING
When pushing the vehicle by hand, do not press on the rear lights, the rear spoiler or large
panels. This could damage the vehicle and loosen the spoiler.

Locking and unlocking the vehicle with keyless access
Fig. 66 Keyless Access locking and starting system: operating range. Sensor surfaces of the
central locking system.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The keyless locking and starting system Keyless Access enables the vehicle to be locked and
unlocked without active use of the key. For this purpose, a valid vehicle key must be within the
vehicle's range ⇒ Fig. 66. The vehicle or boot lid is unlocked or locked by touching the sensor
surfaces on the front door handles or pressing the button in the boot lid ⇒ Boot lid⇒.
General notes
•Unlocking the vehicle using the sensor on the driver or front passenger door or the button on
the boot lid.
•Lock the vehicle by means of the sensor surface on the driver or front passenger door.
•Keyless comfort start function: press the starter button to start the engine ⇒ Starting and

Depending on the mirror function set in the Infotainment system, the exterior mirrors fold out
when the vehicle is unlocked using the sensor on the door handle of the driver of passenger door
and surround lighting is switched on.
If there is no valid vehicle key in the vehicle or if it is not detected, a corresponding display
will be shown on the instrument cluster display. This may occur if the vehicle key is obstructed by
another radio signal or is covered by another item, e.g. a mobile telephone accessory or an
aluminium suitcase ⇒ Starting and stopping the engine.
The sensors may have limited functionality if they become very dirty.
If the vehicle has a DSG dual clutch gearbox, it can be locked only if the selector lever is in
position P.
The entire vehicle will be unlocked if the sensor is touched twice, even if a single door has
already been unlocked.
SAFELOCK
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the vehicle may have an anti-theft alarm and SAFELOCK
⇒ Anti-theft alarm.
The SAFELOCK deactivates the door release levers if the vehicle has been locked. This makes it
more difficult to break into the vehicle. The doors can no longer be opened from the inside ⇒.
•Press the button on the vehicle key once⇒ Central locking system.
•Press the button on the vehicle key twice in quick succession ⇒ Central locking system.
•Vehicles with the keyless locking and starting system Keyless Access: touch the sensor on the
outside of the door handle twice⇒ Locking and unlocking the vehicle with keyless access.
•Press the central locking button in the driver door once ⇒ Central locking system.
Depending on the vehicle equipment level, there may be an indication of the activated SAFELOCK
in the display of the instrument cluster (Check SAFELOCK! or SAFELOCKyf.
Deactivating SAFELOCK
The SAFELOCK can be deactivated in one of the following ways:
•Switch on the ignition.
•OR: deactivate interior monitoring and the anti-tow alarm.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, temporarily deactivate interior monitoring and the anti-tow
alarm using the Infotainment system ⇒ Operation and display in the Infotainment system before
locking the vehicle.
The following applies when SAFELOCK is deactivated:
•The vehicle can be unlocked and opened from the inside using the door release lever.
•The anti-theft alarm ⇒ Anti-theft alarm is active.
Depending on the equipment, the interior monitoring and anti-tow alarm will be activated or

Anti-theft alarm
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Depending on the vehicle equipment level, the vehicle may have an anti-theft alarm and
SAFELOCK ⇒ SAFELOCK.
Always take care when using the SAFELOCK as you could cause serious injuries.
•Never leave anybody in the vehicle if the vehicle has been locked using the vehicle key.
The doors can no longer be opened from the inside once the SAFELOCK is activated.
•Locked doors make it more difficult for emergency service personnel to gain access to
the vehicle and provide assistance when needed. In an emergency, people locked
inside the vehicle would not be able to leave the vehicle by unlocking the doors.
