Safety instructions for the tailgate
WARNING
For safety reasons, you should always keep the tailgate fully closed when
driving. Always close the tailgate properly. Risk of accident or injury.•
Ensure the tailgate is locked after closing. If not, it may open unexpect-
edly while driving.
•
Never close the tailgate without observing and ensuring it is clear, to do
otherwise could cause serious injury to you and others. Make sure that no
one is in the path of the tailgate.
•
Loose objects which could fall out of the vehicle when the tailgate is
opened could cause injury.
•
If you have objects (for example bicycl es) on a rack fitted to the tailgate,
you may not be able to open the tailgate fully, or the additional weight
could close the tailgate. For this reason, you should support the tailgate or
remove the objects from the rack. Risk of injury.
•
Never allow children to play in or ar ound the vehicle. A locked vehicle
can be subjected to extremely high and low temperatures, depending on
the time of year. This could cause serious injuries/illness. It could even
have fatal consequences. Close and lock both the tailgate and all the other
doors when you are not using the vehicle. Make sure first that there is no
one in the vehicle.
•
If you have to drive with the tail gate open, observe the all notes
⇒ page 98 to reduce the risk, for example, of poisoning caused by exhaust
fumes entering the passenger compartment.
