Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the exterior and interior door controls inoperative. It also deactivates the manual central control button.
Therefore, never leave anyone inside the vehicle when it is deadlocked.
Using the key
- Turn the key to the rear in the driver's door lock to lock the vehicle completely.
- Turn the key to the rear again within five seconds to deadlock the vehicle.
Using the remote control
- Press the closed padlock to lock the vehicle completely.
- Press the closed padlock again within five seconds to deadlock the vehicle.
Deadlocking is confirmed by fixed lighting of the direction indicators for approximately two seconds. Depending on version, the door mirrors fold at the same time.
