WARNING
When the double locks are activated, the
doors can no longer be opened from the
inside. People in the vehicle can no longer get
out, e.g. in hazardous situations. There is a
risk of injury.
Therefore, do not leave any people unsuper-
vised in the vehicle, particularly children, eld-
erly people or people in need of special assis-
tance. Do not activate the double lock when
people are in the vehicle.
If the vehicle has been locked with the key or
with KEYLESS-GO, the double lock function is
activated as standard. It is then not possible to
open the doors from inside the vehicle. You can
deactivate the double lock function by deacti-
vating the interior motion sensor (
Y
page 80).
The doors can then be opened from the inside
after the vehicle has been locked from the out-
side. You can only open the rear doors from
inside the vehicle if they are not secured by the
child-proof locks (
Y
page 67). The anti-theft
alarm system is triggered if the door is opened
from the inside. Switch off the alarm
(
Y
page 78).

you can open a door from inside the vehicle even

If the vehicle has previously been locked from
the outside, opening a door from the inside will
trigger the anti-theft alarm system. Switch off
the alarm (
