2.1 Pull door lock (A2)
2.1.1 Electromagnetic door lock
When locking the door, the locking latch dips into the lock and is pulled into the
lock by the locking mechanism.
The power electronic (ELP) registers the locked state via a switch in the door lock
(A2).
During operation, with the door closed, the door lock is electromagnetically
bolted, refer to 020 2.1.2 Safety requirements.
As long as the door is not electromagnetically bolted, the door can be opened by
simply pulling it.
Activating the emergency release cancels the electromagnetic lock, and the door
can be opened.
