CENTRAL LOCKING - DESCRIPTION

2.0 16V JTD, 2.2 16V JTD · Child locks, MY 2005

The simultaneous operation of the door locks takes place via:

- the key;

- the door handles;

- the interior button;

- the remote control.

The remote control incorporated in the key has 4 buttons:

- one for activating the central locking (locking) command, switching on the alarm and the location function;

- one for activating the release of the central locking and switching off the alarm.

See E7015 ALARM

See E3095 SLIDING SIDE DOORS

- one for opening/closing the right sliding side door;

- one for opening/closing the left sliding side door.

See E3095 SLIDING SIDE DOORS

Pressing the locking button for a while activates the so-called "location" function: all the interior courtesy lights, together with the direction indicators, come on for a few seconds.

See E2020 DIRECTION INDICATORS / HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS

See E2510 COURTESY LIGHTS

See E2520 GLOVE COMPARTMENT LIGHT - LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LIGHT - SUN VISOR LIGHT

Pressing the unlocking button a second time activates the so-called "passenger compartment ventilation" function: the front and rear side windows lower fully to allow outside air into the passenger compartment.

See E3050 ELECTRIC FRONT WINDOWS

See E3051 ELECTRIC REAR WINDOWS

The central locking button, located near the front courtesy light, makes it possible to lock and unlock all the doors from the inside. The handle on each of the four doors allows the doors to be opened from inside: all the doors including the tail-gate are unlocked when one handle is opened.

The tailgate is fitted with a 2- position electric lock:

- locked position (deactivated position);

"released" position (activated position).

The tailgate lock does not have a lock barrel, the opening of the tailgate is controlled by a button next to the number plate. This external button is deactivated if the vehicle is locked but activated with the ignition key on M or one minute after turning the key to S.

The operation of the locks is managed by the Body Computer which controls the effective state of the locks by means of signals which arrive from the switches in the actual locks (these signals are also used for the light delay timer): in this way, the "locking" command is only carried out if all the doors are properly shut and the locks unlocked; conversely, the "unlocking" command is only carried out if the locks are locked;

The remote control receiver aerial is incorpated in the steering column switch unit (steering wheel node); the activation and/or deactivation information is sent to the Body Computer via the CAN.

In the event of an accident, the body computer receives air bag device deactivation information from the air bag control unit and controls the opening of all the doors.
