CAUTION
Be sure that there is adequate space above
and behind the vehicle before opening the
tailgate automatically.
The vehicle should not be driven or moved
with the tailgate in the open position. How-
ever, if the vehicle is moved with the tailgate
in the open position, the automatic closing
function will be inoperative until one of the
following occurs:
•
The tailgate is closed manually
•
The ignition is switched off and the key
is removed for approximately 10
minutes (the tailgate will function again
after restart).
NOTE
If the tailgate has been opened and closed
continuously for more than 90 seconds, the
automatic function will be deactivated to
avoid overloading the electrical system. The
automatic function can be used again after
approximately 10 minutes.
Automatic closing
The power tailgate can be closed by pressing
the
button on the tailgate (see the illus-
tration) or by pressing it down.
NOTE
If the tailgate is pressed down e.g., by the
weight of snow or strong wind, it will close
automatically.
WARNING
Be sure that no one is near the tailgate when
it is opened or closed automatically. The
tailgate should never be obstructed in any
way when it is operated.
Interrupting automatic opening/closing
Automatic opening or closing the tailgate can
be interrupted in four ways:
•
By pressing the
button on the
lighting panel.
•
By pressing the
button on the
remote key for several seconds.
•
By pressing the button on the lower edge
of the tailgate.
•
By pulling the outer handle on the tailgate
a second time.
If one of these actions is taken:
•
While the tailgate is being
opened
, the
electrical function will be switched off and
the tailgate will be released from the elec-
trical system.
•
While the tailgate is being
closed
, it will
return to the fully open position.
Pinch protection
If the tailgate is obstructed while it is being
operated, the pinch protection function is acti-
vated.
•
If the tailgate is being
opened
, the electri-
cal function will be switched off and the
tailgate will be released from the electrical
system.
•
If the tailgate is being
closed
, it will move
in the opposite direction.
Operating the tailgate manually
The power tailgate can be disconnected from
the vehicle’s electrical system by quickly pull-
ing the outer handle twice. The tailgate can
then be opened/closed manually.
Folding down the rear seat backrests
The rear seat backrests can be folded down for
additional loading space. See page 85 for infor-
mation.
