The foot-operated tailgate function is available in two versions:
- Opening and closing with foot movement
- Only unlocking with foot movement (lift up the tailgate manually to open it)
Note that the function for opening and closing with foot movement requires power operated tailgate.
The sensor is located in the centre of the bumper.
One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre (3 feet), for opening and closing to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidental opening e.g. in a car wash.
Opening and closing 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 opening or closing is activated – the tailgate is opened/closed.
- If several kicking motions take place without a key sufficiently close, opening will not be possible until after a certain delay.
- Do not leave your foot in the kicking motion under the car, this could cause activation to fail.
Cancelling opening or closing with foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion while opening or closing is in progress.
>Opening or closing the tailgate is stopped.
- The key does not need to be in the vicinity of the car to cancel opening or closing of the tailgate.
- If the tailgate is stopped close to closed position, the next activation will open the tailgate.
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.
- Pay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash if the key is within range.
Antenna locations for the start and lock systems
An antenna for the keyless starting system and antennas for the keyless locking system are built into the car.
Antenna locations:
| 1 | Under the cup holder in the front section of the tunnel console |
| 2 | In the upper front section of the left-hand rear door |
| 3 | In the upper front section of the right-hand rear door |
| 4 | In the cargo area |
Warning
People with an implanted pacemaker should keep it at a distance of at least 22 cm (9 inches) away from the antennas to prevent interference between the pacemaker and the key system.
