LOCKING, UNLOCKING THE DOORS
If the remote control does not work
In some cases, the radio frequency remote control may not work:
- radio frequency remote control battery worn out or vehicle battery discharged, etc.
- due to the use of electronic devices near to the remote control (e.g. mobile telephone);
- vehicle located in a high electromagnetic radiation zone.
It is then possible:
- to use the key integrated in the radio frequency remote control to unlock the front left-hand door;
- to lock each of the doors manually;
- to use the interior door locking/unlocking control (refer to the following pages).
Manual control
Using the key
Lock or unlock the doors equipped with locks by inserting the key fully into lock 1, then turning it.
Locking the doors manually
Turn screw 2 with the door open (using the end of the key) and close the door.
This means that the doors are then locked from the outside.
The doors may then only be opened from inside the vehicle or with the key for the front doors.
Interior locking/unlocking door control
The switch 3 simultaneously controls all the doors.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not closed properly, the doors and tailgate lock/unlock quickly.
Locking the opening elements without the remote control
With the engine off, the rear doors closed and a front door open,, press switch 3 for more than five seconds.
Make sure you have your key with you before you leave your vehicle.
When the door is closed, all the doors and tailgate will be locked.
Unlocking the driver’s door from outside the vehicle is only possible with the key or the remote control.
Doors and tailgate status indicator light
When the ignition is on, the 3 switch warning light indicates the locking status of the opening elements:
- indicator light on, the doors and tailgate are locked;
- light off, the doors and tailgate are unlocked.
When the ignition is off, the indicator light remains lit and then goes out when you lock the doors.
Locking the doors with the tailgate open
To lock the vehicle leaving a door open (e.g. when transporting something in the luggage compartment which prevents it from being closed), or when the vehicle is located in a zone of high electromagnetic radiation, or if the key is faulty: with the engine switched off, press and hold switch 3 for more than five seconds.
Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the doors locked when you are driving, remember that it may be more difficult for those assisting you to gain access to the passenger compartment in the event of an emergency.
Never leave your vehicle with the key, remote control or transmitter/receiver inside.
