Operating the trunk lid with a foot movement*
The trunk lid can be opened by moving your foot* under the rear bumper. This function makes it easy to access the cargo compartment when your hands are full.
One of the vehicle's keys must be in range behind the vehicle, within about 1 meter (3 feet), for activation to be possible. This also applies if the vehicle is unlocked.
Opening the trunk lid with a foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion with your foot under the sensor area under the rear bumper. Then take a step back. Do not touch the bumper.
A short signal sounds and the trunk lid opens.
If several kicking movements are made without a key within range, the function will be disabled for a short time.
Do not hold your foot in a kicking motion under the vehicle. This may cause activation to fail.
The trunk lid is closed by pressing it down manually.
Note
Keep the area around the foot movement sensor clean. The accumulation of dirt, ice or snow may interfere with its functioning.
Note
Please note that the system could be inadvertently activated in a car wash if the key is within range.
