If the vehicle was previously centrally locked
with the SmartKey or KEYLESS-GO, the trunk
lid will lock automatically when closed. All
turn signal lamps flash three times and an
acoustic signal sounds three times to confirm
locking.
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO:
To prevent a possible inadvertent lockout, the
trunk lid will open automatically if a SmartKey
with KEYLESS-GO is recognized inside the
vehicle or in the trunk.
The vehicle is only locked when the turn signal
lamps flash three times and an acoustic signal
sounds three times. If you are carrying a
second SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO with you,
you can still lock the vehicle.
