Memorising an
opening position
Where height is restricted (garage with a low c
eiling, ...)   it   is   possible   to   limit   and   memorise  
t

he   opening   angle   of   the   motorised   tailgate.
This
  memorisation   is   done   as   follows:
-
 
o
pen   the   tailgate   to   the   desired   position,
-
 
p
ress   button C   or   the   exterior   control   B for
more
  than   3   seconds.
Memorisation
  of   the   maximum   opening   position  
o

f   the   tailgate   is   confirmed   by   an   audible   signal.
To
  cancel   the   memorised   position:
-
 
s
top   the   tailgate   in   an   intermediate  
p

osition,
-
 
p
ress   button C   or   the   exterior   control   B for
more
  than   3   seconds.
Cancellation
  of   the   memorised   position   is  
c

onfirmed   by   an   audible   signal.
Manual operation
The motorised tailgate can be opened and closed   manually,   even   if   motorised   operation   is  
a

ctivated.
However,
  any   manual   intervention   must   be  
d

one   with   the   tailgate   stopped.
Repeated
 
opening
 
and
 
closing
 
of
 
the
 t
ailgate
 
can
 
cause
 
overheating
 
of
 
its
 e
lectric
 
motor,
 
after
 
which
 
opening
 
and
 
c

losing
 
will
 
not
 
be
 
possible.
Allow
 
10
 
minutes
 
for
 
the
 
motor
 
to
 
cool
 
d

own
 
before
 
operating
 
the
 
tailgate
 
ag

ain.
If you are not able to wait, operate it
manually.
Detection of obstacles
Should an obstacle (person or object) be e ncountered,   the   anti-pinch   system   interrupts  
t

he   closing   movement   and   raises   the   tailgate   a  
f

ew   centimetres   to   clear   the   obstacle. When
  opening   and   closing   a   motorised   tailgate  
m

anually,   there   is   no   assistance   from   gas-filled  
s

truts.   Resistance   to   opening   and   closing   is  
t

herefore   entirely   normal.

t

ailgate   and   prevent   its   opening:   wait  
u

ntil   the   ice   melts   with   the   heating   of  
t

he

y

our   vehicle   and   under   the   door   mirrors.

60 Vision   provides   special   visual   assistance  
i

n   particular   driving   conditions   such   as   when  
e

ntering   a   blind   junction   or   manoeuvring   in  
a

reas   of   reduced   visibility.
Once
  activated,   this   function   operates   up   to  
9 m

ph   (15   km/h).   Above   18   mph   (30   km/h),   the

unction   is   deactivated   automatically. This
  system   is   a   visual   aid   which   in   no  
c

ircumstances   can   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The   images   provided   by   the   cameras

p

resence   of   areas   in   shade,   in   sunny  
c

onditions,   or   of   low   ambient   light   may
