TAILGATE

The tailgate opens slightly.
Opening with the remote control, see
page 24.
Manual operation
In the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can also operate the tailgate manually.
3. Fold the rear seat bench upwards
4. Pull the ring.
The tailgate is unlocked.
Closing
The handle recesses in the interior trim
panel of the tailgate make it easier to pull
the lid down.
To avoid injuries, be sure that the
travel path of the tailgate is clear
when it is closed, as with all closing proce-
dures.
Operate the vehicle only when the tailgate
is closed. Otherwise, exhaust fumes could
penetrate the interior of the vehicle.
Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate the vehicle with the tailgate open:
1. Close all windows. Shut the sliding/tilt
sunroof
2. Sharply increase the air supply for the air
conditioning or automatic climate
control, see pages 64 and/or 67.<
