Liftgate
To close
You can pull the liftgate down by
placing both hands in the handle
recesses (arrows).
To avoid injuries, be sure that the
travel path of the liftgate is clear
when it is closed, as with all closing
procedures.<

When the liftgate is open, the
dimension from the ground to
the upper edge is more than 6.5 ft
(two meters). Please keep this in mind
when opening the liftgate (in a garage,
for example).<
Operate the vehicle only when
both gates are completely closed.
Otherwise, exhaust fumes could pene-
trate the interior of the vehicle. Should it
be absolutely necessary to operate the
vehicle with an open gate:
> Close all windows. Shut the sliding/
tilt sunroof.
> Increase the air supply for the air
conditioner or automatic climate
control to a high level. Refer to
page 102 or page 109.<
Luggage straps
Use the retaining straps on the cargo
area floor to secure smaller items of
luggage.
Movement is reduced when objects are
placed on the straps.
The lashing eyes located at the corners
of the cargo area provide you with a
convenient means of attaching luggage
nets
* or flexible straps for securing
suitcases and luggage.
Refer also to "Cargo loading" on
page 129.
