it is locked from the outside with the remote
control. You cannot leave the car using any
of the controls inside the car.
Automatic relocking
If none of the doors or the tailgate is opened
within two minutes of unlocking, all are
locked again automatically (does not apply to
locking from inside). This function prevents
the car from being left unlocked unintentionally.

When the function is activated and the doors

The function can be activated/deactivated by
means of personal preferences, see page 69.
