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.

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.

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).

obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, road salt
etc.).
