Access02
Memorising is not available until the
height of opening is more than or equal to
1 metre between the low position and the high
position of the tailgate.
Manual operation
The tailgate can be manoeuvred by hand, even
with motorised operation activated.
The tailgate must be stationary.
When opening and closing the motorised tailgate
manually, there is no assistance from gas struts.
Resistance to opening and closing is therefore
entirely normal.
Repeatedly opening and closing the
motorised tailgate can cause overheating
of its electric motor, after which opening and
closing will not be possible.
Allow at least 10 minutes for the electric motor
to cool down before operating the tailgate
again.
If you are unable to wait, operate it manually.
Manual closing of the
motorised tailgate in case of
failure
This operation is only necessary in the case of
failure of the tailgate motor.
If the failure originates from the battery, it is
recommended to recharge it or change it with the
tailgate closed.
In this situation, a significant force may be
needed to close the tailgate.
►  Close it gently without slamming, as slowly as
possible, by pushing at the centre of the tailgate.
Do not lower the tailgate by pushing at
one of its sides - risk of damage!
Precautions in use
In wintry conditions
To avoid any operating problems, remove
the snow or wait until the ice melts before
requesting motorised opening of the tailgate.
When washing
When washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, do not forget to lock and move
away from the vehicle to prevent any risk of
unwanted opening.
Hands-free function
(Hands-Free Tailgate
Access)
With the electronic key on your person, this
function allows the motorised tailgate to be
opened, closed or stopped via a "kicking"
movement under the rear bumper.
The "Handsfree Trunk Opening" function is
configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch
screen application.
Ensure that you are steady on your feet
before performing the "kicking"
movement.
Take care not to touch the exhaust system
which may be hot - risk of burns!
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
The function is not available when the
vehicle is connected.

enough), with the engine running, in STOP mode
of Stop & Start, and up to 45 seconds after turning
off the ignition or after locking the vehicle.
Precautions
Do not put your head or arms through the
sunroof while the vehicle is moving - risk
of serious injury!
Ensure that any luggage or accessories
carried on the roof bars do not interfere
with the movement of the sunroof.
Do not place heavy loads on the movable glass
panel of the sunroof.
If the sunroof is wet, following a rain
shower or washing the vehicle, wait until
it is completely dry before operating it.
Do not operate the sunroof if it is covered by
snow or ice - risk of damage!
Use only plastic scrapers to remove snow or
ice from the sunroof.
Regularly check the condition of the
sunroof seals (e.g. presence of dust, dead
leaves).
If using a car wash, check first that the roof is
correctly closed and keep the high-pressure jet
at least 30 centimetres from the seals.
Never leave the vehicle with the sunroof
open.
Operation
When opening the sunroof fully, the movable
glass moves to a partially open position, then
slides over the roof. Any intermediate position is
possible.
Depending on the speed of the vehicle, the
partially open position may vary to
improve the acoustics.

41
Access02
Before operating the sunroof or blind
control buttons, ensure that no object or
person might prevent the movement.

once without passing the point of resistance
opens or closes it fully.
The sunroof and windows, then the blind,
can be closed by holding down the door
locking control. The manoeuvre stops as soon
as the locking control is released.
Closing of the blind is limited by the
position of the sunroof: the blind cannot
go further than the front of the movable glass.
During simultaneous movements of the
sunroof and blind, the blind automatically
stops or resumes movement depending on the
position of the sunroof.
Reinitialisation
Following reconnection of the battery or in the
event of a fault or jerky movement of the sunroof
or blind, reinitialisation is required.
