Using the door lock
General information

Locking from the outside
Do not lock the vehicle from the outside if there are people in it, as the vehicle cannot be unlocked from inside without special knowledge.
The alarm system is triggered when the door is opened, if the vehicle is unlocked via the door lock.
In order to terminate this alarm, unlock vehicle with the remote control, or switch on the ignition, if necessary, by emergency detection of the remote control.
Only the driver's door is unlocked or locked via the door lock.
Locking the doors and trunk lid together
To lock all doors and the trunk lid at once:
1. With the doors closed, lock the vehicle using the button for the central locking system in the interior.
2. Unlock and open the driver's or front passenger door.
3. Lock the vehicle.
▷ Lock the driver's door using the
integrated key in the door lock, or
▷ Press down the lock button of the front
passenger door and close the door from
the outside.
The fuel filler flap can only be locked using the remote control.
Manual operation
If an electrical malfunction occurs, lock or unlock the vehicle using the integrated key via the door lock on the driver's door.
