Manual locking

In certain situations (e.g., if there is no electri-

cal current in the vehicle), the doors can be

locked manually.

The detachable key blade (p. 157) can be

used in the lock cylinder in the driver's door

to lock that door.
The other doors do not have lock cylinders

and the slot on the rear edge of each door

has to be used to lock it. This will lock the

door from the outside but it can still be

opened from inside the vehicle. To do so:

Manually locking a door

–

Insert the key blade into the slot and turn

it 90 degrees to lock that door (the slot in

a particular door locks that door only).

In the horizontal position, the door cannot

be opened from the outside.
In the vertical position, the door can be

opened from the inside and the outside.

If the manual child safety lock (p. 61) is

activated for a rear side door and that door

is also locked manually, the door cannot

be opened from the outside or inside. The

door can only be unlocked with the remote

key or the central locking button.
