Motorised tailgate
(Depending on version)
The motorised tailgate must only be operated
with the vehicle stationary.


Check that there is enough space to allow
for the movement of the motorised
tailgate.


Never insert a finger in the locking system
of the motorised tailgate - risk of serious
injury!
Anti-pinch
The motorised tailgate has an obstacle detection
system that automatically interrupts and reverses
its movement by a few degrees, to allow the
obstacle to be cleared.
Please note that this anti-pinch system is not
active at the end of the closing travel (around
1 cm from completely closed).
To avoid the risk of injury through
pinching or trapping, before and during
operation of the motorised tailgate:
–

ensure tha
t there is no-one close to the rear

particularly any children.
Bicycle carrier/Towing device
The motorised tailgate is not designed to support
a bicycle carrier.
When installing a bicycle carrier on the towing
device with connection of the cable to the trailer
socket, the motorised operation of the tailgate
will be automatically deactivated.
If using a towing device or bicycle carrier
not recommended by the Manufacturer, it
is essential to deactivate the motorised
operation of the tailgate.
Motorised operation
The motorised operation of the tailgate is
configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch
screen application.


There are several ways of operating the tailgate:

default, or to the position memorised
beforehand.
If motorised operation is not activated, these
actions release the tailgate (partially-open
position).
When the vehicle is locked, the request to open
the boot with one of the controls A or B unlocks
the vehicle, or only the boot if selective
unlocking is activated, prior to the opening of
the boot.
Closing
►  A short press on the interior tailgate control C.
It is possible to interrupt the operation of
the tailgate at any point.

Operation of buttons
►  Pressing a button beyond its point of
resistance directly opens or closes the sunroof or
blind fully.
►  Pressing the button again stops the current
movement.
►  When holding a button (without going
beyond the point of resistance), the movement
of the sunroof or blind stops when this button is
released.
►  When the sunroof is closed: pressing once
without passing the point of resistance moves it
to a partially open position.

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

time that depends on the level of charge in the
battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam of
LED technology lamps - risk of serious eye
injury!


Travelling abroad
The design of the dipped beam headlamps
allows you to drive, without any modification,
in a country that drives on the other side of
the road to the country in which your vehicle
was sold.
