Drive lock is a system fitted to most roadsters excluding a few early and base models.

The whole purpose of the system is to lock to doors as soon as the car reaches 8mph, the idea is to help reduce the risk of being car jacked as the external handles are deadlocked when the car has been set in motion.

As soon as a door is opened from the inside, unlocked with the key fob or activation of the emergency system in the event of a accident the car will unlock allowing use of the exterior handles.

Although this system has an obvious use, some find it frustrating and wish to deactivate it, to do this follow the procedure below:

To de-activate the system:

• Press and hold the lock button on the warning triangle.
• Press the unlock button on the key fob.

To re-activate the system:

• Press and hold the lock button on the warning triangle.
• Press the lock button on the key fob.
