Opening and closing the cargo area
contactlessly
Principle
You can open the cargo area contactlessly
when carrying the vehicle key on your person.
With automatic tailgate activation, the cargo
area can also be closed contactlessly.
Two sensors detect a forward-directed foot
movement in the central rear area and the
cargo area is opened or closed.
General information
Function availability depends on vehicle equip-
ment and national-market version.
If the vehicle key is within the sensor range, the
cargo area may open or close inadvertently if
you unintentionally move your foot or if a foot
movement is detected.
The sensor has an approximate range of
5 ft/1.50 m extending from the rear area.
If contactless opening is used for the cargo
area, the locked doors will not be unlocked.
Depending on the national-market version,
contactless opening and closing of the cargo
area is also possible for compatible smart-
phones with a Digital Key.
