|| Opening and closing with foot
movement
Kicking motion within the detector's valid activation area.
Make one slow, forward kicking motion
–
under the left part of the rear bumper. Then
take a step back. The bumper must not be
touched.

18
closed on activation via foot movement.
If several kicking motions take place without an
approved remote control key being located
behind the car, opening will not be possible until
after a certain delay.
18 Applies to cars with power operated tailgate*.
272
Do not leave your foot positioned under the car
during the kicking motion. This could cause acti-
vation to fail.
Cancelling opening or closing with foot
movement
Make one slow forward kicking motion when
–
opening or closing is in progress in order to
stop the movement of the tailgate.
The remote control key does not have to be in
the vicinity of the car to cancel opening or clos-
ing.
If the tailgate is stopped close to closed position,
the next activation will open the tailgate.
NOTE
There is a risk of reduced function, or no
function, if the rear bumper is loaded with
large amounts of ice, snow, dirt or similar. For
this reason, make sure you keep it clean.
NOTE
Pay attention to the possibility that the sys-
tem may be activated in a car wash or similar
if the remote key is within range.
Cars with the skid plate* accessory
If the car is equipped with skid plate the sensor is
located out on the left-hand corner of the
bumper.
To activate opening or closing with a foot move-
ment on a car equipped with skid plate, the kick-
ing motion is made from the side of the car. One
of the car's remote control keys must be within
range (approx. 1 metre (3 feet)) for opening and
closing to be possible.
* Option/accessory.
