Important safety notes
G WARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. If the tailgate
is open when the engine is running, particu-
larly if the vehicle is moving, exhaust fumes
could enter the passenger compartment.
There is a risk of poisoning.
Turn off the engine before opening the tail-
gate. Never drive with the tailgate open.
G WARNING
If objects, luggage or loads are not secured or
not secured sufficiently, they could slip, tip
over or be flung around and thereby hit vehicle
occupants. There is a risk of injury, especially
when braking or abruptly changing directions.
Always store objects so that they cannot be
flung around. Secure objects, luggage or
loads against slipping or tipping before the
journey.
! The tailgate swings upwards and out
when opening. Therefore, make sure that
there is sufficient space above the tailgate.
The opening dimensions of the tailgate can be
found in the "Vehicle data" section
(
Y
page 310).
If the rear spoiler has been extended man-
ually the height when opened is higher by this
amount. If in doubt, retract the rear spoiler
again manually before opening the tailgate
(
Y
page 236).
You can switch the luggage compartment
lighting on and off manually on the overhead
control panel (

page 102).
