Limiting the opening angle of the tail-
gate (Estate)
Important safety notes
You can limit the opening angle of the tail-
gate. This is possible in the top half of its
opening range, up to approximately 20 cm
before the stop.
This could be useful, for example, if there is
insufficient space above the tailgate.
!
Make sure there is sufficient clearance to
open the tailgate fully when setting the
opening angle. The tailgate could otherwise
be damaged. Ideally, set the opening angle
outside.
