Keyless opening and closing of the tailgate with a foot movement
The tailgate can be opened and closed by moving a foot under the bumper, which makes life easier when your hands are full.
Note
One of the car's keys must be within range for locking and unlocking to work.
One of the car's keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre (3 feet), for opening to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidental opening e.g. in a car wash.
Opening and closing with foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion under the centre of the rear bumper.
Take one step back, the bumper must not be touched.
A short acoustic signal sounds when opening and closing is activated – the tailgate is opened/closed.
If several kicking motions take place without an approved key being located behind the car, opening will not be possible until after a certain delay.
Do not leave your foot positioned under the car during the kicking motion. This could cause activation to fail.
Interrupt opening or closing with a foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion while the tailgate is opening or closing in order to stop its movement.
The key does not need to be near to the car to interrupt tailgate opening or closing.
If the tailgate is stopped when it is almost closed, the next activation will open the tailgate.
Note
There is a risk of reduced function, or no function, if the left rear wing is loaded with large amounts of ice, snow, dirt or similar. For this reason, make sure you keep it clean.
Note
Pay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash or similar if the key is within range.
