Closing and locking

  1. Press the P5-1507 Power Operated Tailgate - close and lock button button[1] on the underside of the boot lid to close it and simultaneously lock the boot lid and doors (all doors must be closed for locking).
    The boot lid closes automatically - the boot lid and doors are locked, and the alarm* is armed.

    Note

    If the remote control key is not detected sufficiently close to the boot lid, locking/unlocking will not work. See the section "Remote control key range" for more information.

    Note

    When using keyless* locking/closing, three signals will sound if the key is not detected sufficiently close to the boot lid. See the sections "Remote control key range" and "Locks and remote control keys" for more information.

    Note

    The button is active 24 hours after the hatch has been left open. Thereafter, it must be closed manually.

Important

During manual boot lid operation, open or close it slowly. Do not use force to open/close it if there is resistance. It may be damaged and stop working correctly.

Cancel closing

  1. There are five ways to cancel closing:
    • Press the button on the instrument panel.
    • Press the remote control key's button.
    • Press the close button[1] along the bottom edge of the boot lid.
    • Press the rubberised pressure plate beneath the outside handle.
    • Using the foot movement* (see section "Opening/closing power operated boot lid with foot movement" for more information).
    The movement of the boot lid is stopped and it returns to fully open. The boot lid can then be operated manually.

Pinch protection

If something with sufficient resistance prevents the boot lid from closing then the pinch protection is activated.

  • During closing - the movement is stopped, the boot lid returns to fully open and a long signal sounds.

Warning

Pay attention to the risk of crushing when closing. Before starting to close, check that no one is near the boot lid, since a crushing injury can have serious consequences.

Always operate the boot lid with caution.
