Automatic locking feature
The vehicle locks automatically when the
ignition is switched on and the wheels of the
vehicle are turning at a speed of more than
9 mph (15 km/h).
You could therefore be locked out when:
- the vehicle is being pushed.
- the vehicle is being towed.
- the vehicle is being tested on a dynamometer.

- To deactivate: press and hold button 1
for about five seconds until a tone sounds.
- To activate: press and hold button 2 for
about five seconds until a tone sounds.
If you press one of the two
buttons and
do not hear a tone, the relevant setting has
already been selected.
You can also switch the automatic locking function on and off using the on-board computer.
