Operating the boot lid with foot movement*
The boot lid can be opened using a foot movement* under the rear bumper. The function makes things easier when your hands are full.
One of the car's keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre (3 feet), for activation. This also applies if the car is unlocked.
Opening the boot lid with foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion in the sensor area under the rear bumper. Then take a step back. The bumper must not be touched.
A short acoustic signal sounds when the boot lid is opened.
If several kicking motions are made without a key within range, the function is deactivated after a while.
Do not leave your foot positioned under the car during the kicking motion. The activation may then fail.
The boot lid is closed by pressing it down manually.
Note
Make sure you keep the area around the foot movement detector clean. A build-up of dirt, ice or snow may disrupt its function.
Note
Pay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash if the key is within range.
