Using the door lock
General information
Locking from the outside
Do not lock the vehicle from the outside if
there are people in it, as the vehicle cannot be
unlocked from inside without special knowledge.◀

Locking from the outside
When unlocking:
1. Turning the key once unlocks the driver's door and the fuel filler flap.
2. Turning the key a second time unlocks the remaining doors and the tailgate.
Convenient operation
You can use the door lock to operate the windows and the glass sunroof/panoramic glass sunroof.
With the door closed, turn the key to the unlock or lock position and hold it there.
Turning the key back to the original position stops the motion.
Monitor the closing process
Monitor the closing process to ensure that
no one becomes trapped; otherwise, injuries
may result.◀
Manual operation
If an electrical malfunction occurs, unlock or lock the driver's door using the integrated key in the door lock.
