There are several possibities for operating the electric boot lid:
■
By pressing the boot lid remote release button on the remote control key for
approx. 1 second,
■
using the handle
A
» Fig. 22 above the licence plate,
■
using the button
B
on the bottom edge of the boot lid (only accessible when
the lid is opened),
■
using the button on the centre console » Fig. 23.
CAUTION
■
In a critical situation, the movement of the lid can be stopped by applying an
abrupt and quick force against the lid.
■
Before opening or closing the lid, check if there are any objects in the opening
or closing range which could obstruct the movement (e.g. a load on the roof lug-
gage rack or on the trailer, etc.) - risk of causing damage to the lid!
■
Ensure that there is at least 10 cm of clearance above the opened boot lid (e.g.
distance from the garage ceiling). Otherwise, it may happen that the clearance
above the opened lid is no longer sufficient after relieving the vehicle of a load
(e.g. after unloading) - risk of causing damage to the lid.
■
Do not try to manually close the lid during the electric closing process. Damage
can occur to the system of the electric boot lid.
■
If the lid is closed manually, it must be ensured that when moving the lid into
the lock, pressure is applied to the centre edge of the lid above the ŠKODA logo.
Note
■
If the electrical opening of the lid was triggered using the button on the remote
control key or the button on the centre console, an intermittent audible signal
sounds while the lid is moving.
■
The electric boot lid is fitted with a force limiter. If the lid hits an obstacle when
closing, it stops and an audible signal sounds. If you rapidly enter the vehicle dur-
ing the opening or closing process of the boot lid, the whole vehicle may jerk and
as a result the movement of the lid can be interrupted - the force limiter is activa-
ted.
■
Manually opening and closing the boot lid is only possible in exceptional cases,
and must be completed slowly and without sudden movements as close to the
centre of the lid as possible. Handling the sides of the lid can damage the electric
lid.
■
In certain circumstances, if the lid is loaded (e.g by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. The lid must be protected to ensure
its electrical functionality.
