WARNING
If there is a large amount of snow or a heavy load on the boot lid, the boot lid may not open or, if it is already open, the boot lid may lower by
itself and cause serious injuries due to the additional weight.
Never open the boot lid if it is covered by a large amount of snow or a load is attached to it, e.g. a rack or luggage carrier.
Remove the snow or luggage before opening the boot lid.
WARNING
Serious injuries could occur if the boot lid is closed incorrectly or without due care and attention.
Never leave the vehicle unattended or leave children playing unattended in or around the vehicle when the boot lid is open. Children could
climb into the luggage compartment and shut the boot lid and trap themselves inside. Temperatures inside a locked vehicle may reach
extremes of heat or cold, according to season. This could cause serious injuries or illness, or even have fatal consequences.
NOTICE
Before opening or closing the boot lid, please check that there is enough space to open or close the boot lid, e.g. when towing a trailer

The system switches off automatically in order to prevent overheating if it is used too frequently in a short space of time. The function can

If the vehicle battery or fuse is disconnected or faulty when the boot lid is open, the boot lid must be fully closed once by hand.
