Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Operating description

The electric luggage compartment lid (hereinafter referred to only as a lid) is
equipped with a force limiter. If the lid hits an obstacle when closing, it stops
and an audible signal sounds.
If you rapidly enter the vehicle during the opening or closing process of the

can be interrupted.

that when pressing the lid into the lock, pressure is applied to the centre edge
of the lid above the ŠKODA logo
WARNING
Ensure that the lock is properly engaged after closing the lid. Otherwise,
■
the lid might open suddenly while the vehicle is moving, even if the lid was
locked – risk of accident!

■
