Power operated tailgate
- Hold the key’s
button depressed for a couple of seconds. - The tailgate is unlocked and opened, while the side doors remain locked and their alarm functions are armed.
NoteIf the system for the power-operated tailgate works continuously for a long time, it is deactivated in order not to overload it. It can be used again after a few minutes.
Setting the max. opening for electrically operated tailgate
To adjust max. opening
- Open the tailgate manually – and stop it in the desired opening position.
- Press and hold
the button on the bottom of the tailgate for approx. 3 seconds. - Two acoustic signals sound to indicate that the set position has been saved.
NoteIt is not possible to program an opening position lower than a half-open tailgate.
Reset max. opening
- Open the tailgate manually to the fully open position.
- Press and hold the
button on the underside of the tailgate for approx. 3 seconds. - Two acoustic signals sound to indicate that the set position has been cleared.
Operating the tailgate with foot movement
If the car is equipped with keyless locking and unlocking then you can unlock the tailgate with a foot movement.
The function with both opening and closing of the tailgate is also available when the car is equipped with a power-operated tailgate.
NoteThe 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 a power-operated tailgate.
One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 meter (3 feet). This also applies when the car is unlocked.
Opening and closing with foot movement
Kicking motion within the detector’s activation area.- Make one forward kicking motion under the left part of the rear bumper.
- The bumper must not be touched. Then take a step back.
- A short acoustic signal sounds when the tailgate is opened/closed.
- 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.
Canceling opening or closing with foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion while opening or closing is in progress in order to stop the movement of the tailgate.
The key does not need to be in range to cancel opening or closing.
If the tailgate is stopped just before being fully closed, it will open on the next activation.
NoteMake sure you keep the area around the foot movement detector clean. A build-up of dirt, ice, or snow may disrupt its function.
NotePay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash if the key is within range.
Cars with the skid plate accessory
If the car is equipped with a skid plate the sensor is located out on the left-hand corner of the bumper.
Unlocking the tailgate from inside of the car
Briefly press the button on the instrument panel.- The tailgate is unlocked and can be opened from the outside.
- With the power-operated tailgate option:
- Hold the instrument panel’s
button depressed for a couple of seconds. - The tailgate is opened.
NoteIf the system for the power-operated tailgate works continuously for a long time, it is deactivated in order not to overload it. It can be used again after a few minutes.
Keyless unlocking of the tailgate
Note
- One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car for unlocking to work.
- The tailgate is held closed by an electrical lock.
- To open:
- Press gently on the rubberized pressure plate beneath the tailgate handle.
- The lock is released.
- Lift by the outside handle in order to open the tailgate.
- Handle the rubber panel with care to avoid damage to its electrical contact. Minimal force is required for activation.
- Do not exert the lifting force on the rubber panel when opening – lift the handle.
It is also possible to unlock the tailgate with a foot movement under the rear bumper, see separate section.
Warning
Do not drive with an open tailgate! Toxic exhaust fumes could be drawn into the car through the cargo area.
Fuses in the cargo area
The central electrical unit is located under the storage compartment on the right-hand side.- The fuse box in the engine compartment also provides space for several spare fuses.
Positions
Fuse locations are shown on the inside of the cover. Functions and components in the fuse table cover several models and engine alternatives. A fuse description can therefore apply to fewer than those in the table, or be completely missing, depending on how the car is equipped.
If a position has several values in the table, the value depends on variations in equipment level. In which case, follow the value of the fuse being replaced. In the event of doubt – contact a workshop. An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
