WARNING
● Always close the rear lid properly. Risk of
accident or injury.
● Do not close the rear lid by pushing it down
with your hand on the rear window. The glass
could smash. Risk of injury!
● Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing it.
If not, it may open unexpectedly while driv-
ing.
● Never allow children to play in or around
the vehicle. A locked vehicle can be subjected
to extremely high and low temperatures, de-
pending on the time of year, thus causing se-
rious injuries/illness. It could even have fatal
consequences. Close and lock both the rear
lid and all the other doors when you are not
using the vehicle.
Closing the rear lid without observing and
●
ensuring it is clear could cause serious injury
to you and to third parties. Make sure that no
one is in the path of the rear lid.
Never drive with the rear lid open or half-
●
closed, exhaust gases may penetrate into the
interior of the vehicle. Danger of poisoning!
● If you only open the rear lid, do not leave
1
the key inside. The vehicle will not be opened
if the key is left inside.
Note
Once the rear lid is closed, its lock is en-
●
gaged and the alarm system is activated. On-
ly valid if the vehicle has been locked before
the rear lid is closed.
● The release catch located at the top of the
registration plate recess is deactivated on ac-
celerating or at speeds of over 5 km/h (3
mph). The catch is reactivated when the vehi-
cle comes to a standstill and a door is
opened.
