Locking/unlocking - tailgate
The tailgate can be opened, locked and
unlocked in several ways.
Manual opening
Rubber plate with electrical contact.
The tailgate is held closed by an electrical
lock. To open:
1. Push down gently on the wider of the two
rubberised pressure plates under the
outer handle - the lock is released.
2. Lift the outside handle in order to fully
open the tailgate.
IMPORTANT
•
Minimal force is required to release the
rear hatch lock - just gently press the
rubberised panel.
•
Do not place the lift force on the rub-
ber panel when opening the rear hatch
- lift the handle. Using too much force
may damage the electrical contacts on
the rubber panel.
Unlocking with the remote control key
The alarm for the tailgate can be disarmed*
and the tailgate unlocked on its own by using
the remote control key's
button.
The lock indicator (p. 153) on the instrument
panel stops flashing in order to show that not
all of the car is locked and the alarm's* level
and movement sensors and the sensors for
opening the tailgate are disconnected.
