Door: Locking the door manually

A mechanical locking device (only visible when the doors are open) is provided on the front passenger's door and the rear doors.

– Take the emergency key out of the remote control key.
– Pull the cap out of the opening ⇒ fig. 44.
– Insert the key in the slot inside and turn it as far as the stop to the right (if the door is on the right side) or to the left (if the door is on the left side).

Once the door has been closed it can no longer be opened from the outside. The door can be opened from the inside by pulling the door handle. If the child-proof catch is engaged on one of the rear doors, the door can be opened by pulling the inside door handle once and then opening the door from the outside.
