| L Master Lock System
■ The master lock system locks or
unlocks the driver’s door, the other
H r vehicle doors, the fuel tank filler flap
and the trunk lid simultaneously.
The lock plungers of the other
vehicle doors must then move
together with the lock plunger of the
driver’s door. If this does not
happen, the lock of the respective
door is not properly engaged. Open
the door again and shut it correctly.
The front passenger door and the
rear doors can also be locked or
unlocked individually from inside.
The front passenger door can also
be locked and unlocked with the
key.
With the master lock system in the
locked position, the trunk lid can
also be unlocked individually: To do
so, turn the main key to the left as
far as it will go, then depress the
trunk lid lock push button with the
key and open the trunk. Turn the
key to its initial position and
withdraw it. To lock the trunk lid,
close it firmly; the trunk lid will then
be locked by the master lock
system again.
The trunk lid can also be locked
independently (for instance, to leave
the vehicle in a workshop) without
actuating the master lock system.
Turn the main key to the right as far
as it will go and withdraw it. In this
case the trunk lid can only be
unlocked with the main key which
must be inserted and turned back to
the left.
Note:
If the fuel tank filler flap cannot be
opened, refer to “Unlocking the Fuel
Filler Flap” (page 71).
Electrical Adjustment of Driver’s
and Front Passenger’s Seats
Turn key in steering lock to
position “2”.
Seat and seat back can be adjusted
individually by means of the
switches. These are accommodated
in the front doors.
When the key is withdrawn or
turned to steering lock positions “1”
or “0” , seat and seat back can be
adjusted only if the driver’s door is
open.
