Power locking system
Introduction
In this section you’ll find information about:
Indicator light in the driver door
Description of the power locking system
Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the outside
Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the inside
Unlocking or locking the vehicle with Keyless Access
Anti-theft alarm system
The power locking system works properly only when all doors and the rear hatch are completely
closed. When the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked with the remote control vehicle key.
For vehicles equipped with the Keyless Access with push-button start, the vehicle can be locked only if
the ignition is switched off and the driver door is closed.
Leaving the vehicle unlocked for longer periods of non-use (for example, in your garage) can cause
the vehicle battery to drain so that the engine can no longer be started.

Emergency closing and opening
WARNING
Improper use of power locks can result in serious personal injury.
The power locking button locks all doors. Locking the doors from the inside can help
prevent unintended door opening during a collision and can also prevent unwanted entry
from the outside. Locked doors can, however, delay assistance to vehicle occupants and
rescue from the outside in an accident or other emergency.
Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves behind in the vehicle. All
doors can be locked from the inside with the power lock button. This could leave people
trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. Depending on the time of year, people trapped in the
vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending on the season. Particularly
in the summer, heat buildup in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle
can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher than the outside temperatures.
Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particu-
larly to small children.
Never allow passengers to remain in a locked vehicle. In an emergency any person still
inside the vehicle might not be able to get out.

opened and the ignition is not switched on within about 15 seconds.
In vehicles with a covered lock cylinder: A door unlocked mechanically with the vehicle key bit is
opened.
Forcibly opening a door.
Forcibly opening the engine hood.
Forcibly opening the rear hatch.
Switching on the ignition with an invalid key.
Disconnecting the vehicle battery.
Deactivating the alarm
Unlock the vehicle with the unlock button on the remote control vehicle key or switch on the ignition
with a valid remote control vehicle key.
For vehicles with Keyless Access, the alarm can be deactivated by grasping one of the front door
handles when a valid vehicle key is in range or by holding the remote control vehicle key to the right of
the steering column trim and pressing the starter button
⇒ Starter button.
After the alarm has stopped and the vehicle is opened again in the same or a different area that
is protected by the alarm, the alarm is triggered again. For example, the alarm will sound again if the
rear hatch is opened after one of the doors has been opened.
The anti-theft alarm system is not activated when the vehicle is locked with the power lock
switch
on the inside of the driver or front passenger doors.
If the driver door is mechanically unlocked using the vehicle key bit, only the driver door is un-
locked, not the entire vehicle. Switching on the ignition deactivates the anti-theft alarm system and
activates the central locking button. To unlock the doors, use the central locking button or remote
control vehicle key.
If the vehicle battery is dead or weak, the anti-theft alarm system will not work properly.

WARNING
Accidents and severe personal injuries can result if you unlock, open, or close the rear hatch
when someone is in the way.
Only open or close the rear hatch if no one is in the way.
Never close the rear hatch by pushing on the rear window with your hand. The rear win-
dow could break and cause injuries.
After closing the rear hatch, always make sure that it is properly closed and locked so that
it cannot open suddenly when the vehicle is moving. The closed rear hatch must be flush
with the surrounding auto body parts.
Always keep the rear hatch closed while driving to help keep poisonous exhaust gas from
being drawn into the vehicle.
Never open the rear hatch when a luggage rack is installed and loaded. If, for example,
there are bicycles on a carrier on the rear hatch, it is possible that the rear hatch will be diffi-
cult to open. An open rear hatch may fall on its own because of the additional weight. If nec-
essary, prop open the rear hatch. Remove the weight from the luggage rack first.
Close and lock the rear hatch and all doors when the vehicle is not in use. First, make sure
that no one is left inside the vehicle.
Never leave your vehicle unattended or let children play around your vehicle, especially
when the rear hatch is open. A child could crawl into the vehicle and pull the rear hatch shut,
becoming trapped and unable to get out. A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold,
depending on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat buildup in the passenger and
luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are
much higher than the outside temperatures. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can
cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.
Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves behind in the vehicle. They
may lock the vehicle with the vehicle key or the power locking button and lock themselves in.
NOTICE
Before opening or closing the rear hatch, make sure there is enough room to do so, for exam-
ple, when the vehicle has a trailer or is in a garage.
