OPENING FROM INSIDE
(fig. 143)
Tailgate is released electrically and this can
be performed only when the ignition key
is in position MAR with car at a standstill
or in STOP or PARK position for 3 min-
utes without unlocking/locking one of the
doors.
To unlock the tailgate, press button (A)
on the centre console panel.
Tailgate raising is facilitated by the gas
shock springs.
A0A0129b
The gas springs are cali-
brated to ensure correct
tailgate raising with the
weights foreseen by the manufac-
turer. The arbitrary addition of
items (such spoilers, etc.) may
compromise the correct operation
and safety of the actual tailgate.
OPENING WITH REMOTE
CONTROL (fig. 144)
The tailgate can be opened by remote con-
trol from outside pressing the button (A),
also when the electronic alarm is engaged.
Opening of the tailgate is accompanied by
a double flash of the direction indicators;
closing is accompanied by a single flash.
If an electronic alarm is fitted, with the
opening of the tailgate, the alarm system
switches off volumetric protection and the
tailgate control sensor, the system "beeps"
twice (with the exception of certain mar-
kets).
Closing the tailgate again, the control func-
tions are restored, the system "beeps" twice
(with the exception of certain markets).
