The boot lid (hereinafter as lid) can be operated electrically and manual in the
event of an emergency » page 61.
If the lid hits an obstacle when opening or closing, it stops and an audible sig-
nal sounds. When closing the flap is lifted additionally.
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!■
Never drive with the lid open or unlatched, as otherwise exhaust gases
may get into the interior of the vehicle – risk of poisoning!
■
Only open and close the lid when no one is in the opening/closing range –
risk of injury!
■
Make sure that no limbs are caught or crushed when closing the lid - risk
of injury!
CAUTION
Do not attempt to close the door manually during electrical closing process -
there is a risk of damaging the system of an electric valve operation.
CAUTION
■ Before opening or closing the lid, check if there are any objects in the open-
ing or closing range which could obstruct the movement (e.g. a load on the
roof rack or on the trailer, etc.) – risk of causing damage to the lid!■
In certain circumstances, if the lid is loaded (e.g. by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. Remove the snow from the lid to
re-enable the electrical operation.
■
If the lid closes automatically (e.g. under load of snow), you will hear an inter-
mittent beep.
■
The flap is always to be close before disconnecting the battery.
