latch ensuring lid locking upon closing.
Liftgate can be opened using button
on the key fob RKE transmitter
and the button on front dome console

opening process.
In addition to these commands, it is
possible open and close the power

foot under the rear bumper. In this
latter case, the liftgate will be opened
and closed only if the "Passive Entry"
system acknowledges the presence of
the key fob RKE transmitter within 1 m

the opening once the car has been
unlocked by the key fob or by the
"Passive Entry" function.
By pressing this button when the
power liftgate/Hands free is closed,
you can open it completely, or by
pressing the button again stop the
opening process, or by pressing the
button again invert the movement and
close it completely.
