A
WARNING
- Never close the rear lid inattentively or
without checking first. Although the
closing force of the rear lid is limited,
you can still seriously injure yourself or
others.
-Always ensure that no one is within
range of the rear lid when it is moving, in
-
particular close to the hinges and the up-
per and lower edges - fingers or hands
can be pinched.
- To help prevent poisonous exhaust gas
from being drawn into the vehicle, al-
ways keep the rear lid closed while driv-
ing. Never transport objects larger than
those which fit completely into the lug-
gage area, because then the rear lid can-
not be fully closed.
- Never leave your vehicle unattended
es-
pecially with the rear lid left open. A
child could crawl into the car through the
luggage compartment
and pull the lid
shut, becoming trapped and unable to
get out. To reduce the risk of personal in-
jury, never let children play in or around
your vehicle. Always keep the rear lid as
well as the vehicle doors closed when not
in use .
- If there is a luggage rack or bicycle rack
mounted on the rear lid, it may not be
able to open completely or an opened
rear lid may close by itself because of the
added weight. So the open rear lid must
be supported or the weight must be re-
moved from the luggage rack first.
(D
Tips
- As soon as the electrical connection to
the trailer socket is completed on vehi-
cles with a factory installed towing hitch,
or a trailer hitch that was installed later
according to factory specifications, the
automatic rear lid function can only be
operated via the handle in the rear lid.
- If the vehicle battery charge drops below
a certain level, you can still open or close
the rear lid manually, however, you will
need to apply more force to close it.
- If the rear lid on a locked vehicle is un-
locked with the middle button
?:Jon
the
remote key, the rear lid is automatically
locked again immediately after closing.
This is indicated by the turn signals
blinking.
