Opening and closing
compartment li
The luggage compartment lid can be released
from the inside in an emergency.
Please note that when you have the conven-
ience key with you, the sensor-controlled lug-
gage compartment lid could open or close un-
expectedly during activity near the rear of the
vehicle (for example, the lid could hit the ceil-
ing ina garage).
The luggage compartment lid will only open
or close ” if you perform the movement as
described. This prevents the luggage com-
partment lid from opening or closing due to
similar movements !), such as when you walk
between the rear of the vehicle and your ga-
rage door. In some situations, the function
may be limited or temporarily unavailable.
This may happen if:
~You are standing too close to the bumper or
too far away from it
~The luggage compartment lid was closed or
opened immediately beforehand
~ You park close to a hedge and the branches
move back and forth under the vehicle for a
long period of time
~You clean your vehicle, for example with a
pressure washer or in a car wash
~ There is heavy rain
~The bumper is very dirty, for example after
driving on salt-covered roads
— There is interference to the vehicle key’s ra-
dio signal, such as from mobile devices or
remote controls
~ If the vehicle key is located in the luggage
compartment or passenger compartment
while the luggage compartment lid is open,
then it will not be possible to close the lug-
gage compartment lid using foot motions.
The closing function applies to vehicles that also have au-
tomatic luggage compartment lid operation.
