Obstruction detection with reversing function
The tailgate is equipped with automatic object
detection with reversing function. If a solid object
blocks or restricts the tailgate during the auto-
matic closing process, the tailgate opens again
automatically. The automatic object detection with
reversing function is only an aid. It is not a substi-
tute for your attentiveness when closing the tail-
gate.
&
WARNING Risk of becoming trapped
despite reversing function
The reversing feature does not react:
R
to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. fingers
R
over the last 8 mm of the closing move-
ment
The reversing feature therefore cannot prevent
someone being trapped in these situations.
#
Make sure that no body parts are in the
closing area.
If someone is trapped:
R
press the
q
button on the key or
R
press the closing button on the tailgate or
