Notes:
The automatic closing process is interrupted, if the
trunk lid is pushed against an object. The trunk lid will
reverse slightly and stop. In its final closing stage the
hydraulic power closing assist mechanism releases the
trunk lid which then drops into the lock by its own
weight. Now the trunk lid will stop but not reverse
slightly.
Investigate and correct the cause of interruption.
Now press trunk lid opening/closing switch again to
close the trunk lid.
In case of a malfunction the trunk lid can be opened and
closed manually.
To open, unlock trunk lid with the mechanical key and
open lid by hand, see page 53.
To close, lower trunk lid with hands placed flat on trunk
lid. Please remember to keep your fingers out of the
space between the lid and the vehicle.
The trunk can also be opened by using the remote
control. Press Š button.
The trunk lid cannot be opened by the switch or the
remote control when previously locked separately with
the mechanical key. To open, see page 53.
The trunk lid cannot be opened with the trunk lid
opening/closing switch when the vehicle was
previously locked with the central locking switch. To
unlock vehicle with the central locking switch, see
page 50.
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO:
To prevent a possible inadvertent lockout, the trunk lid
will open automatically if a KEYLESS-GO-card is
recognized in the area of rear shelf or inside the trunk.
