Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Unlocking Using The Key Blade
The driver's door can be locked and unlocked using the key blade in the remote key. This is an extra solution should there be a fault in the system. The other doors can be unlocked using the inner central locking buttons after the remote key is inserted in the starting lock. The remedy will deploy the alarm if installed. The alarm can be reset by inserting the remote key in the starter module.
The lock cylinder is covered by a cover, this cover must first be removed to make the lock cylinder visible. This is done by inserting the key blade through a hole underneath the cover and pulling outwards.
