Closing the tailgate and locking the
vehicle from the outside (vehicles with

In vehicles with tailgate opening/closing
system* and KEYLESS-GO, you can close
the tailgate and lock the vehicle simulta-
neously from the outside using the
KEYLESS-GO locking/closing switch.

KEYLESS-GO with you.
̈ Press switch 1 briefly.
ț The tailgate closes.
ț All turn signal lamps flash three
times.
ț The locking knobs in the doors
move down.

armed.
If the tailgate comes into contact with an
object while closing (e.g. luggage that has
been piled too high), the closing procedure
is stopped and the tailgate reopens
slightly.
Even with the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO
removed from the vehicle, the tailgate clos-
ing switch can be operated. Therefore, do
not leave children unattended in the vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Unsu-
pervised use of vehicle equipment may
cause an accident and/or serious personal
injury.

among other dangers such as blocked visi-
bility, exhaust fumes may enter the vehicle
interior.

locked, the tailgate will lock automati-
cally after closing it.
To confirm locking all turn signal lamps
flash three times.

You can also close the tailgate by hand.

To prevent a possible inadvertent lock-
out, the tailgate will open automatically
if a SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO is rec-
ognized inside the vehicle.
