The tailgate is held closed by an electrical lock. To open:

  1. Push down gently on the wider of the two rubberised pressure plates under the outer handle - the lock is released.
  2. Lift the outside handle in order to fully open the tailgate.

 Important

  • Minimal force is required to release the rear hatch lock - just gently press the rubberised panel.
  • Do not place the lift force on the rubber panel when opening the rear hatch - lift the handle. Using too much force may damage the electrical contacts on the rubber panel.
