:E ' -When the trailer socket is being used (for
example, for a bicycle rack), the luggage
compartment lid can be opened and closed
using the handle or the foot motion activa­
tion (vehicles with convenience key*).
Opening/closing the luggage compartment
lid with foot motion activation (kicking
movement)
Applies to: veh icles with conven ience key and sensor-control­
led luggage compartment lid
Fig. 26 Rea r of t he ve hicle : foot movement
You can open and close the luggage compart­
ment lid w ith foot motion activat ion .
Requirements: you must be carrying your conven­
ience key* with you . You must be standing at the
center behind the luggage compartment lid. The
ignition must be switched off . Make sure you
have f irm foot ing.
- Move your foot back and forth under the bump­ er one time
q fig. 26. Do not touch the bumper.
The luggage compartment lid will open/close
once the system detects the movement.
The luggage compartment lid will only open/
close if you perform the movement as described.
This prevents the luggage compartment lid from open ing or closing due to sim ilar movements,
such as when you walk between the rear of the
vehicle and your garage door.
The closing of the luggage compartment lid is in ­
d icated by a warning signa l and can be cance led
by making the described movement again .
The foot movement does not lock the vehicle.
Op eni ng and clos ing
General informat ion
In some sit uations, the funct ion may be limited
or temporarily unavailable. This may happen if:
- the l uggage compartment lid was closed imme­
d iately before
- you park close to a hedge and the branches
move back and forth under the veh icle for a
long per iod of t i me
- you clean your veh icle, for example w ith a pres­
sure washer or in a car wash
- there is heavy rain
- the bumper is very dirty, for example after driv- ing on salt-covered roads
- there is interference to the radio signal from
the vehicle key, such as from cell phones or re ­
mote controls
8,. WARNING
- Pay careful attention when closing the lug­
gage compartment lid . O therwise, you co uld
cause serious injury to yourself or others de­
spite the pinch protection .
- To reduce the r isk of pinching inju ries, al­
ways make sure that no o ne is in the ope rat­
ing area of the luggage compartment lid, in­
cluding the hinge areas and the upper and
lower edge of the luggage compartment lid.
- Never drive with the luggage compartment
lid ajar or open, because poisonous gases
can enter the vehicle interior and create the risk of asphyxiat ion.
- If there is a luggage rack (such as a bicycle
rack) on the luggage compartment lid, the
luggage compartment lid may not open
comp letely under certa in circumstances or it
could close by itself if open due to the ext ra
weight. Therefore, the open luggage com­
partment lid must be given additional sup­
port or the ca rgo must fi rst be removed
from the luggage rack.
