Locking and unlocking the vehicle
From the outside of the vehicle, the driver's door may be
locked or unlocked using the key.
When opened , the latch will rise up (for vehicles without central locking).
For vehicles equipped with electric windows and central locking, if the key is
maintained in the opening position all of the electric side windows will open.
When locking the latch will descend (for vehicles without central locking)
In some vehicle models equipped with electric windows and central locking,
if the key is maintained in the locking position on the driver side, any side
windows left open, as well as the electric sunroof, will close.
For vehicles without central locking, the passenger door and the rear doors
may be locked from the outside without using a key. Just press the button
down and close the door.
The latch on the driver’s door may not be pushed down while the door is open
(only in vehicles without central locking). This avoids accidentally leaving the
keys in the ignition.
From inside all the doors may be locked by pushing the security buttons down
(in vehicles without central locking).
WARNING

from the outside of the vehicle.

Closing from the outside without taking care or observing all the
vehicle may cause bruising for other people especially children.

When the doors are locked, any intrusion is impeded, for example while
stopped at a red light.
