Operator's Manual - Mercedes-Benz B-Class

Automatic locking

~1min read
  • Deactivation: press button 1 for approximately 5 seconds, until a signal tone sounds.
  • Activation: press button 2 for approximately 5 seconds, until a signal tone sounds.

When the ignition is switched on and the wheels are turning, the vehicle locks automatically. You may then lock yourself out.

The vehicle may therefore lock unintentionally

  • if you push it
  • if it is being towed
  • during a check on a test bench
If you press one of the 2 buttons and no signal tone sounds, this means the corresponding setting has already been selected.

You can activate and deactivate automatic locking via the trip computer.
