Before Driving
Exiting the Car
Open a Door
As for opening from the outside, each
door has a button on the interior panel
that unlatch and opens it slightly and
a handle that allows the user to open
it completely. If the central locking of
the doors has been activated via the
power doors lock/unlock button on the
central tunnel (see “Get Into the Car” in
this section), pressing the button on the
interior panel will unlatch only the door
you intend to open.
Under certain conditions (battery charge
status below 8 V or speed signal failure)
if the door is locked, it can be opened
pressing three consecutive times the
internal or external button on the door.
The doors open "butterfly" with a first
movement towards the outside and then
upwards.
Once unlatched, the door is opened
partially and then, with a slight push with
the internal handle, automatically rotates
outwards and upwards.
The door opening movement is
facilitated by a gas shock absorber
which, once the maximum height is
reached, keeps it in that position. This
movement can be stopped manually
at any time by exerting a downward
pressure on the internal handle in order
to overcome the resistance of the gas
shock absorber.
CAUTION!
Make sure there is sufficient overhead (
A) and side (B) clearance before opening
a door: see “Dimensions” in section
“Technical Specifications”.
Close a Door
Once you have exited the car, use the
opening of the outer surface to close
the door observing all the precautions
described in the chapter “Get Into the
Car” to close the door.
