System functions: Deadlocking
A deadlocked door cannot be opened from the inside or outside. The deadlocking function is executed when locks are engaged via the outside door handle electronics (with Comfort Access) or using the remote key. When the vehicle is deadlocked, the alarm system (DWA) is also activated.
The deadlocking function is not available in all vehicles, but is instead dependent on the optional equipment and the national-market version.
