WARNING
Careless and unsuitable locking, opening and
clos
ing of the rear lid can cause accidents
and serious injury.
●
Open and close the rear lid only when no-
body is in the way.
●
Do not close the rear lid by pushing it down
with your hand on the rear window. This
could break and cause injury.
●
Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing,
otherwise, it may open unexpectedly while
driving. A closed rear lid should be flush with
the corresponding parts of the bodywork.
●
Always keep the rear lid closed while driv-
ing to avoid toxic gases entering the vehicle
interior.
●
Do not open the rear lid when there is a
load carrier installed. Likewise, the boot
hatch cannot be opened when a load is at-
tached to it, for example bicycles. An open
rear lid could close itself if there is an addi-
tional weight on it. If necessary, press down
on the rear lid and remove the load.
●
Close and lock both the rear lid and all the
other doors when you are not using the vehi-
cle. Ensure that nobody remains inside the
vehicl
e.
●
Never allow children to play inside or
around the vehicle without supervision, espe-
cially if the rear lid is open. Children could
enter the luggage compartment, close the
rear lid and become trapped. Depending on
the time of the year, temperatures inside a
locked and closed vehicle can be extremely
high or extremely low resulting in serious in-
juries and illness or even death, particularly
for young children.
●
Never leave children or disabled people
alone in the vehicle. If the vehicle key or the
central locking button is used, they may be
locked in the vehicle.
WARNING
Unsuitable or careless unlocking and opening
of the re
ar lid could cause serious injuries.
●
If there is a loaded luggage carrier on the
rear lid, it could be unlocked or open but not
recognised as such. An unlocked or open rear
lid could open unexpectedly while driving.
CAUTION
Before opening the rear lid, ensure that there
is s
ufficient free space to open and close it,
for example if you are towing a trailer or in a
garage.
Warning lamp
It lights up
The rear lid is open
or not correctly
shut.
Stop driving immediately!
Open the rear lid and close it
again.
Several warning and control lamps light up
for a few sec
onds when the ignition is switch-
ed on, signalling that the function is being
verified. They will switch off after a few sec-
onds.
A warning lamp appears on the dash panel
if the boot hatch is open or not properly
closed.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, a sym-
bol may be displayed on the dash panel
screen instead of the warning lamp. The indi-
cation is also visible when the ignition is
switched off. The indication disappears
around 15 seconds after the vehicle has
been locked.
WARNING
If the rear lid is not correctly closed, it could
open unexpect
edly when driving and cause
serious injuries.
●
Always stop immediately and close the rear
lid.
●
Ensure that the rear lid has been locked in-
to place by the element on the lock carrier
when you close it.
