Electric boot lid
Introduction
The boot lid (hereinafter as lid) can be operated electrically and manual in the
event of an emergency » page 64.
WARNING
■
Ensure that the lock is properly engaged after closing the lid. Otherwise,
the lid might open while the vehicle is moving - risk of accident.
■
Never drive with the lid open or unlatched, as otherwise exhaust gases
may get into the interior of the vehicle – risk of poisoning!
■
Only open and close the lid when no one is located in the opening/closing
range – risk of injury!
■
Make sure that no limbs are caught or crushed when closing the lid - risk
of injury!
CAUTION
■
Do not attempt to close the lid manually during the electrical closing process
- there is a risk of damaging the electric lid operation.
■
When washing the vehicle in a car wash, we recommend that you lock the
vehicle (with the central locking button). In some car washes the boot lid
might open automatically due to the pressure action of the washing brushes -
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle interior.
CAUTION
■
Check that no objects are located in the opening/closing area which could
hinder the movement (e.g. cargo on the roof rack or on the trailer etc.) - there
is a risk of damage to the lid!
■
In certain circumstances, if the lid is loaded (e.g. by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. Remove the snow from the lid
to re-enable the electrical operation.
■
If the lid closes automatically (e.g. under load of snow), you will hear an inter-
mittent beep.
■
The flap is always to be close before disconnecting the battery.
