It is not necessary to slam the door or trunk

mechanism draws doors and trunk lid closed
quietly and automatically once door and trunk
lid has been latched. When the electrical
power-assisted mechanism has stopped,
doors and/or trunk can be reopened.
GWarning!
To prevent possible personal injury, always
keep hands and fingers away from the door or
trunk opening when closing a door or the
trunk lid. Be especially careful when small
children are around.
In case of danger, pull the inside or outside
door handle, or pull the trunk lid handle.
To prevent personal injury, never actuate the
closing assist mechanism by tampering with
the door or trunk lid latch.
