• The Smart key tailgate release button.
After the tailgate has opened to its set
height, it can be manually raised or
lowered. If the tailgate fails to open or
close correctly, close it manually and then
press the tailgate release switch again.
As the closing tailgate approaches the
closed position, it will ‘soft close’ to the
fully closed position. If the vehicle was
previously locked, the alarm re-arms. The
hazard warning lamps flash to confirm the
alarm status. An audible confirmation may
also be given.
Note: If a tailgate switch is pressed while
the tailgate is opening or closing, all
movement will stop. However, if a switch
is pressed during the ‘soft close’ stage, it
will be ignored.
Object detection while opening: If an
object is detected that would interfere
with the tailgate opening, tailgate
movement will stop. Remove any
obstructions and press the tailgate switch
again to open.
Object detection while closing: If an object
is detected that would interfere with a
tailgate closing, tailgate movement will
stop and then reverse to the fully open
position, if able to do so. An audible
warning will be given to indicate a mislock.
Remove any obstructions and if the
tailgate is open, press the tailgate switch
again to close the tailgate. If the tailgate
is not open, press a tailgate release switch
to open the tailgate, remove any
obstructions. Once the obstructions have
been removed, press the tailgate close
switch to close the tailgate.
Note: If a valid Smart key cannot be
detected within 1 m of the rear of the
vehicle, the tailgate will not power close.
An audible warning sounds to indicate a
mislock.
Note: If the tailgate is closed manually,
the vehicle searches for a valid Smart key.
If no Smart key is detected within 1 m of
the rear of the vehicle, or a Smart key
remains inside the vehicle, an audible
warning sounds to indicate a mislock and
the tailgate re-opens after approximately
three seconds.
Note: If the Smart key is inadvertently left
inside the loadspace and the vehicle is
locked and the alarm set, an audible
warning sounds to indicate a mislock and
the tailgate re-opens after approximately
three seconds. The Smart key may not be
detected if it is placed within a metal
container, or if it is shielded by a device
with a back-lit LCD screen, such as a smart
phone, laptop (including when inside a
laptop bag), games console, etc.
GESTURE TAILGATE
Make sure there is sufficient space
above and at the rear of the vehicle,
before operating the tailgate.
Insufficient opening space may
result in damage to the vehicle.
Do not operate the tailgate if a
cycle rack is fitted to the tailgate.
Remove any cycles and/or racks
before operating the tailgate.
Sensors, positioned within the outer parts
of the rear bumper, recognise a kick
movement of a foot below the bumper
level, and allow automatic opening or
closing of a powered tailgate.
