3.8 Removing and installing door handle
with access and start authorisation

Removal and installation are described only for the right door
handle. The removal and installation procedure for the left
door handle is basically the same.

Door handle stops in “open” state. Try not to push door handle
in, as otherwise mounting bracket will break off and a removed
door handle can no longer be installed.
