Operation

Activation / Deactivation

If one of the doors or the boot is open, the
automatic central locking does not take place.

Carrying long or
voluminous objects

If you want to drive with the boot open,
you should press the central locking
button to lock the doors. Otherwise,
every time the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the locks
will rebound and the alerts mentioned
above will appear.

Pressing the central locking button unlocks the
vehicle.
Above 6 mph (10 km/h), this unlocking is
temporary.

Driving with the doors locked may
render access for the emergency
services difficult in an emergency.

This is signalled by the sound of
the locks rebounding, accompanied
by illumination of this symbol in the
instrument panel, an audible signal
and the display of an alert message.

With the ignition on, press this button

until an audible signal starts and a
corresponding message is displayed.

The state of the system stays in memory when
switching off the ignition.
