The automatic tailgate manoeuvre can
be stopped at any time by a short press
on one of the controls. Depending on
the opening position, the tailgate hatch
can however continue to be opened
manually.
If the tailgate is stationary in the inter-
mediate position, your next press will
move the tailgate in the opposite direc-
tion to when you stopped it.
Manual mode
After stopping the tailgate, you can per-
form the manoeuvre manually if you
wish.
You can switch to automatic movement
at any time by pressing one of the con-
trols.
Obstacle detection
When the tailgate window encounters
an obstacle (presence of an object or
person) when it is moving, it stops.
Depending on the opening position, the
tailgate hatch can however continue to
be opened manually.
Press the tailgate opening/closing con-
trol to reperform the tailgate movement
in the same direction as before encoun-
tering the obstacle.

angle
You can adjust the maximum tailgate
opening height It will always stop at the
chosen position:
– open the tailgate to an intermediate position;
– manually adjust the tailgate to the chosen position;
– press the automatic tailgate control 3
for more than 3 seconds to save the
position.

that the position has been saved.

any way replace the user’s
care or responsibility.

AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (5/5)Operating faults
If you activate the automatic tailgate
continuously for around a minute (se-
quence of opening and closing), it will
stop in order to avoid overheating. The
operation will return to normal after
about a minute.
The automatic tailgate will not operate
if the battery is on low charge. In this
case, operate the automatic tailgate
with the engine started.
Note
In very cold weather conditions, the au-
tomatic opening may not operate if the
trunk lid joints are frozen.
Precautions during use
Before opening/closing the tailgate,
ensure that the surrounding space is
sufficient to allow the tailgate to ope-
rate. If not, stop the tailgate movement
with the external tailgate control and
hold the tailgate in position by hand
(the tailgate may continue to open ma-
nually).
If the tailgate is moving and the engine
is started, the movement will stop for a
seconds before continuing.
Avoid multiple manual stops during the
automatic tailgate movement (risk of
damaging the tailgate system).
Make sure that the sensors are not
obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, road salt
etc.).
Driver’s responsibility

the vehicle

with a child, an adult who is not self-
sufficient or a pet inside or at the
rear of the tailgate, even for a short
while.

or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows, the automatic
tailgate or by locking the doors.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Disable the «hands-free» function before washing the vehicle manua\
lly
