of the boot lid
Principle
The boot lid can be opened contactlessly, provi‐
ded you are carrying the vehicle key with you.
With automatic operation of the tailgate, it can
also be closed contactlessly. Two sensors detect
a directed foot movement in the central rear area
and the boot lid is opened or closed.
General
To prevent the vehicle key from being locked in,
do not place it in the boot.
If the vehicle key is within the sensor range, the
boot lid can be accidentally opened or closed by
an unintentional or presumed foot movement.
The sensor range extends to approximately
1.50 m, 5 ft behind the rear area.
If the boot lid is opened with a contactless
method, locked doors are not unlocked.
