Key actuation
The central locking system consists of: a control unit with an impulse circuit, servomotors in the doors, a servomotor in the boot lid or rear lid, and a servomotor in the fuel cap. The control is carried out by means of two microswitches, which are located in the driver's door lock.
In addition, the central locking has an anti-theft device, which can only be activated through the lock in the driver's door. To do this, the key must be turned back to position no later than 10 seconds after the closing signal «close». When the anti-theft device is turned on, the following are mechanically blocked: the lock drum in the driver's door and the electric servomotors in the remaining three doors.
The trunk can be locked by turning the key to the left and removing the key in this position. Although after unlocking the doors, the trunk remains closed. In order to provide access to the car interior after accidents, a shock switch is installed in the control unit, which, after a collision of a certain force, unlocks all doors.
Tips: To ensure the functioning of the impact switch, the control box must be firmly fixed to the vehicle.
Emergency management
If the central locking system needs to be removed, the doors and the tailgate or tailgate can also be traditionally opened and closed with a key. Also, the door lock buttons can be pressed by hand if the central lock is not set to «blocked».
Although unlocking the fuel cap is more difficult: after removing the right trunk liner, the lock lever on the fuel cap servomotor must be pulled back in the direction of travel.
If the central locking is set to «blocked», it can only be unlocked with the key in the driver's door lock or with the central locking release button. Passenger's doors next to the driver and rear doors in position «blocked» are not manually released.
Using the remote control
Using the radio remote control, you can control the central locking, turn the blocking module on and off and activate the anti-theft system. For more details, see the section «Anti-theft system».
