WARNING
Unsuitable or careless unlocking and opening

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.
Note
At outside temperatures of less than 0 °C
(+32 °F), the pressurised gas struts cannot
always automatically lift the rear lid. In this
case, open the rear lid manually.

Ensure that it is correctly closed by pulling

Locking the rear lid
If you unlock the vehicle without opening any
doors or the rear lid, it will lock again auto-
matically after 30 seconds. This function pre-
vents the vehicle from remaining unlocked if
the unlocking button is pressed by mistake.
Locking is only possible when the rear lid is
correctly and fully closed.
The rear lid is also locked by a central lock-
ing.
If the vehicle rear lid is locked or unlocked
using the
button, when it is closed once
more it will lock automatically.
A closed but not locked rear lid will lock au-
tomatically at a speed above about 9 km/h
(7 mph).

the rear lid could cause serious injuries.
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. A locked vehicle
can be subjected to extremely high and low
temperatures, depending on the time of year,
thus causing serious injuries/illness and
even death.

Before closing the rear lid, make sure that the
key has not been left inside the luggage com-
partment.
