Lock Emergency Unlocking from Inside If you need to open the door in an emergency (such as when the door handle's electronic switch fails, or the vehicle has fallen into a body of water) but the whole vehicle is locked, pull the mechanical switch for the inner door handle to open the door on the corresponding side. Caution • When the 12V battery of the vehicle is low on power, the physical emergency key can only be used to unlock the door on the driver side. At such moments it cannot be used to unlock the whole vehicle. The other doors can only be unlocked and opened by pulling the mechanical switch for the inner door handle.
• The windows cannot be lowered when the door is opened using the mechanical switch for the inner door handle because doing so would risk damaging the window trim panel. • Neither rear door can be opened from inside when the child safety lock function is enabled. They can only be opened from outside once the whole vehicle is unlocked. • In the event of an accident that is of sufficient gravity to trigger airbag deployment, the child safety lock on the rear door will unlock automatically. 17
