Turn the key counterclockwise once: the
driver´s door will unlock.

This switch is inoperative when the car is
locked from the outside.
The interior locking buttons on each door
affect only the respective door.
If the car is left with the doors open, the inte-
rior lighting and the courtesy lights in the
doors will be switched off automatically after
20 minutes, to prevent a flat battery. In such
cases the electrically operated seats will not
function.
WARNING
Having the doors locked when you are
driving will reduce the likelihood of:
• Passengers, especially children,
opening doors and falling out of the
car.
• Intruders entering the car when it is
moving slowly or stopped.
• Being thrown out of the car in a crash.
