Foot movement tailgate operation *
To make it easier to operate the tailgate when your hands are full, it can be opened and closedby moving your foot in a forward kicking motionunder the rear bumper.
The sensor is located to the left of center under the rear bumper.
One of the vehicle's remote keys must be within range behind the vehicle (approx. 1 meter (3feet)) for opening and closing to be possible. Thisapplies even if the vehicle is unlocked in order toprevent the trunk lid from inadvertently openinge.g. at a car wash.
Foot movement operation
Kicking motion within the sensor's activation area.
–Make one slow forward kicking motion with
your foot under the left section of the rear bumper. Take a step back. Do not touch thebumper.
> A brief audible signal will be heard when opening or closing is activated - the tail- gate will open/close. If the tailgate is open, it will always close 16
when the foot motion sensor is activated.
If several opening attempts have been made without the remote key in range behind the vehi-cle, foot movement operation will not be availablefor a short period of time. Do not keep your foot under the vehicle in a kick- ing motion. This may prevent activation.
Interrupting opening or closing with a foot
movement
–Make one slow forward kicking motion while
the tailgate is opening or closing to stop its movement.
The remote key does not need to be within rangeof the vehicle to interrupt opening or closing.
NOTE
There is a risk of reduced or lost function if there are large amounts of snow, ice, dirt, etc.on the rear bumper. Make sure to keep thebumper clean.
NOTE
Please note that the system could be inadver- tently activated in a car wash or similar if theremote key is within range.

Blind sectors
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of vision.
With 360° view selected, objects/obstacles may not be detected if they are located in the "joints"where the edges of the individual camera viewsmeet.
WARNING
Even if it seems as though only a fairly small section of the screen image is obstructed, thismay mean that a relatively large sector is hid-den and obstacles there may not be detecteduntil they are very near the vehicle.
Defective cameraIf a camera sector is dark and contains this symbol, this indi-cates that the camera is notfunctioning properly. See the following illustration for an example.
The vehicle's left-side camera is malfunctioning.
Dark camera sector
A dark camera sector may also be displayed in the following situations, but without the defective
camera symbol:
• a door is open
• the tailgate is open
• a rearview mirror is folded in
Lighting conditionsThe camera image is automatically adjusted according to the current lighting conditions. This means that the brightness and quality of theimage may vary slightly. Poor lighting conditionsmay result in reduced image quality.
