REAR WINDOWThe rear window can be opened from the inside
or outside of the vehicle. Press button
A on
the centre console to open it from the inside.
The rear window may only be opened when
the vehicle is stationary. The button can be
deactivated after the doors have been locked.

the button
B on the ignition key for at least 2
seconds, thus releasing the lock.
To prevent accidental activation while driving,
the rear window can only be opened when the
vehicle is stationary.Raising the rear window is facilitated by the
action of the gas struts. The struts are calibrated
to ensure proper operation with the weights
specified by the manufacturer. Arbitrary additions
of objects (e.g. spoilers, trunk racks, etc.) can
jeopardise proper operation and safety in the use
of the rear window.
CAUTION
To close the rear window push
it down taking care not to crush your
hands when the gas struts invert
resistance.
CAUTION
When using the luggage
compartment, never exceed the
maximum loads allowed (see
section on “Capacities and Technical
Specifications”). Also check that
the objects contained in the luggage
compartment are arranged properly.
CAUTION
It is extremely dangerous and
moreover prohibited by law to travel
on the luggage shelf behind the seats.
In the event of an accident, persons
travelling in this position are more
exposed to the risk of serious injury.
Passengers must only travel seated in
the vehicle seats, with the seat belts
fastened properly. Always check that
you and your passengers have your
seat belts fastened correctly.
