Cancelling the memorisation
With the tailgate in the intermediate
position, you can cancel the stored
position:
Make a long press on push-but-
ton D . The system emits a long
audible beep.
Release the push-button D . The
tailgate will return to the fully
open position at the next use.
Electrical protection of the
motor
If the tailgate is repeatedly opened
and closed in quick succession, the
motor can start to overheat and then
cut out, preventing opening and
closing of the tailgate.
Allow the motor to cool down for ten
minutes without opening or closing
the tailgate.
Closing in manual back-up mode re-
mains possible. To avoid risk of injury, make sure
that no one is in the vicinity of the
boot while opening and closing.
If the tailgate is carrying extra
weight (snow, bicycle carrier, etc.)
there is a risk of it closing under
this load. Support the tailgate or
fi r s t u n l o a d t h e b i c y c l e c a r r i e r o r
clear the snow.
When using an automatic car wash, don’t forget to lock the vehicle so
as to avoid any risk of motorised
opening of the tailgate.
