Opening and closing the tailgate
contactlessly
Principle
The tailgate can be opened and closed contact‐
lessly, provided you are carrying the vehicle key
with you. Two sensors detect a directed foot
movement in the central rear area and the tail‐
gate is opened and closed.
General
To prevent the vehicle key from being locked in,
do not place it in the luggage compartment.
If the vehicle key is within the sensor range, the
tailgate 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 tailgate is opened with a contactless
method, locked doors are not unlocked.
Contactless opening and closing of the tailgate
must be activated in the settings.
