tem* you can close the trunk separately.
1 Trunk closing switch
̈ Press trunk closing switch 1 briefly.

If the trunk lid comes into contact with an
object while closing (e.g. luggage that has
been piled too high), the closing procedure
is stopped and the trunk reopens slightly.
i
You can also close the trunk by hand
(
page 114).
Warning! G
Monitor the closing procedure carefully to
ensure that no one is in danger of being in-
jured. To prevent possible personal injury,
always keep hands and fingers away from
the trunk opening when closing the trunk.
Be especially careful when small children
are around. To stop the closing procedure,
do one of the following:
ț press trunk closing switch 1
ț press the Š button on the SmartKey
ț press the remote trunk opening or clos-
ing switch (on driver’s door)
Even with the SmartKey removed from the
starter switch, the trunk closing switch can
be operated. Therefore, do not leave chil-
dren unattended in the vehicle, or with ac-
cess to an unlocked vehicle.
Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may
cause an accident and/or serious personal
injury.
Warning! G
Only drive with the trunk closed as, among
other dangers such as blocked visibility,
exhaust fumes may enter the vehicle
interior.
i
Do not place the SmartKey in the open
trunk. You may lock yourself out.
i
If the vehicle was previously centrally
locked, the trunk will lock automatical-
ly after closing it (
page 113). All turn
signal lamps flash three times, and an
acoustic signal sounds three times (if
equipped and feature activated), to
confirm locking.
