Locking and unlocking with the detachable key blade
The removable key blade can be used to unlock the car from the outside – if there is no power to your car or the key battery is discharged, for example.
Unlocking
Press the pushbutton and pull out the driver's door handle to its end position so that the lock cylinder can be seen.
Insert the key in the lock cylinder.
Rotate clockwise through 45 degrees.
Turn the key back 45 degrees to its starting position. Remove the key from the lock cylinder and release the handle.
Pull out the handle.
The door opens.
Switch off the alarm and start the car
Note
When the door is unlocked using the key blade and is then opened, the alarm is triggered.
Deactivate the alarm as follows:
Place the key on the key symbol in the backup reader in the bottom of the cup holder in the tunnel console.
Then turn the start knob clockwise and release it.
The alarm signal stops sounding and the alarm is switched off.
Locking
The doors have a lock switch at the end which must be depressed using the key blade – these are then mechanically locked/blocked to prevent them being opened from outside.
The doors can still be opened from the inside.
Remove the detachable key blade from the key. Insert the key blade in the hole for lock reset and press the key in until it bottoms, approx. 12 mm (0.5 inches).
The door can be opened from both the outside and the inside. | |
The door is blocked against opening from the outside. To return to position A, the inner door handle must be opened. |
The doors can also be unlocked with the unlock button on the key or with the central locking button on the driver's door.
Note
A door's lock reset only locks that particular door - not both doors simultaneously.
