Central locking

Operating Principle

The central locking system operates when the driver's door is closed. The following are locked or unlocked at the same time:

► doors;
► luggage compartment lid;
► fuel filler flap

The central locking system can be operated from outside with the remote control;

► by turning the key in the door lock;

and from inside with the central locking button.

When the system is operated from inside, the fuel filler flap is not locked.

When the system is operated from outside, the alarm system is also activated at the same time as the locks. It prevents the doors from being opened with the lock buttons and door handles.

The alarm system is switched on and off together with the locks.

When the central locking is operated with the remote control, the interior light is also switched on and off.

For more information on the alarm system, refer to the relevant section.

In the event of a serious accident, the central locking unlocks automatically.

At the same time, the hazard warning lights and the interior light are switched on
