Child locks

Important safety notes

When children are on board, activate the child locks on the rear doors and deactivate the rear window switches. Otherwise, children could open the doors or side windows while driving and injure themselves or others.

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, even if they are secured in a child restraint system. Children may injure themselves on parts of the vehicle. They may also be seriously or even fatally injured if they are exposed to intense heat or cold for too long.

Do not expose the child restraint system to direct sunlight. Parts of the child restraint system may become very hot, and the child could burn themselves on contact with them.

Children may injure themselves or others when opening a door. They may get out of the vehicle and be injured by or injure other road users.

Also observe the notes on the HOLD function. For more information, refer to the alphabetical index.

• Deactivating the child lock: push the locking lever downward (arrow 2).

Child locks for the rear side windows

Switch 1 engages or extends. When the switch is engaged, the rear window switches on the rear side windows are disabled. You can then operate the rear side windows only using the switches on the driver's door.
