Function sequence for emergency opening in event of crash
In event of a crash the emergency opening function unlocks the vehicle doors after an accident.
After a waiting time of t = 8 to 11 s, the doors are unlocked. For this purpose the pneumatic controller unit with combined functions (A37) actuates the corresponding pneumatic actuators in the doors and in the trunk lid.

The emergency opening function in event of a crash has priority over all other CL functions. When the vehicle has been locked from the outside, the emergency opening function is not active.

Function sequence for trunk lid via trunk lid locking switch
The trunk lid function via the trunk lid locking switch is intended to lock objects in the trunk.
The trunk lid locking switch can be actuated with the emergency key in the transmitter key. It is no longer possible to open the trunk lid. The trunk lid locking switch is read in by the pneumatic controller unit with combined functions.
