S90 Foot movement trunk operation

P5-15w19 - POT footmovement sensor — The foot movement sensor is located to the left of center under the rear bumper2

Important

One of the remote keys must be in your possession or within range when you are behind the vehicle in order to activate the foot movement sensor, even if the trunk is already unlocked. This is done to help prevent the sensor from inadvertently opening the trunk lid, for example, in a car wash.

Be sure that the key is not within range when the vehicle is in an automatic carwash.

Operation

P5-15w19 - Tailgate Footmovement — Kicking motion under the sensor's activation area

Opening/closing

With the remote key within range, move your foot slowly forward in a kicking motion below the left section of the rear bumper without touching the bumper and take a step back.

A brief audible signal will sound when the trunk lid begins to open/close.

The trunk lid can be closed (or closed and locked) by pressing the P5-1507 Power Operated Tailgate - close only button or buttons on the lower edge of the trunk lid3.

It can also be operated manually or by pressing the button on the lighting panel in the passenger compartment or on the remote key.

If several attempts have been made to open/close the trunk lid using the foot sensor without a remote key within range, the function will time out and will not be available for a short period.

Note

Foot operation may not be possible or function normally if the sensor is obstructed by snow, ice, dirt, etc.

Interrupting opening/closing

Move your foot slowly forward in a kicking motion while the trunk lid is opening/closing to stop its movement.

No remote keys need to be within range in order to interrupt movement of the trunk lid.
