gas struts or scratch the struts
while loading or unloading cargo.
That could cause leakage of gas
from the struts, which may result
in their inability to hold the rear
liftgate open.
— Be careful not to hit your head or
face on the rear liftgate when
opening or closing the rear lift-
gate and when loading or unload-
ing cargo.
NOTE
If the rear liftgate cannot be unlocked
due to a discharged battery, a fault in
the door locking/unlocking system or
other causes, you can unlock it by
manually operating the rear liftgate
lock release lever.
For the procedure, refer to "Rear lift-
gate – if the rear liftgate cannot be un-
locked" in chapter 9 "In case of emer-
gency" .
