2Hands-free sliding side
door(s)
Opening/Closing

With a movement of your foot while keeping the
remote control on your person in the recognition
zone A, the system unlocks and opens the
sliding side door or closes and locks it.
The remote control must be located at the rear
of the vehicle, at least about 30 cm but no more
than about 2 m from the vehicle.
The automatic locking after closing the door can be programmed in the vehicle
configuration menu.
Before making the movement with your
foot, ensure that you are steady and well
positioned, so that you do not lose your
balance (rain, snow, ice, mud, etc.).
Take care not to touch the exhaust tailpipe
when making the movement with your foot -
risk of burns.


► Put your foot beneath the corner of the rear
bumper , then move the foot at normal speed with
a sweeping side movement.
The sensor detects the foot approaching and
leaving and triggers the opening or closing of the
side door.
Make the movement without interruption
and do not repeat it immediately
afterwards or several times.
If the door does not open, wait about 2
seconds before trying again.
Do not keep the foot in the air.
Confirmation that the door is going to
open or close is signalled by the direction
indicators flashing for a few seconds,
accompanied by an audible signal.
The movement of the door is reversed if the
movement of the foot takes place during the
manoeuvre.
If the vehicle is so equipped, the electric door
mirrors fold/unfold on locking/unlocking the
vehicle.
Automatic locking
The vehicle locks itself following the hands-free
closing of the sliding door.
If your vehicle is not fitted with an alarm,
locking is signalled by the fixed
illumination of the direction indicators for
about two seconds.
Depending on your version, the door mirrors
fold at the same time.
Activation/Deactivation

By default, hands-free access is activated.The "Hands-Free Tailgate Access" function or automatic vehicle
locking when the sliding door is closed is
