Manual operation
When opening and closing a motorised tailgate manually,   there   is   no   assistance   from   gas-filled  
s

truts.   Resistance   to   opening   and   closing   is  
t

herefore   entirely   normal.
Reinitialising the tailgate
This operation is necessary where there is no
movement  -   after   detection   of   an   obstacle,   after  
c

onnecting   or   recharging   the   battery, ...

Precautions in use
In the event of an accumulation of snow o
n   the   tailgate,   clear   the   snow   before  
c

ommanding   an   automatic   opening   of  
t

he   tailgate.
The
  formation   of   ice   can   block   the  
t

ailgate   and   prevent   its   opening:   wait  
u

ntil   the   ice   melts   with   the   heating   of  
t

he
 p
assenger
 c
ompartment.
When
  washing   the   vehicle   in   an  
a

utomatic   car   wash,   don't   forget   to  
l

ock   your   vehicle   to   avoid   the   risk   of  
u

nexpected
 ope
ning.
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

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines belo w:
F
 
T
o   obtain   an   even   air   distribution,   take   care   not   to   obstruct   the   exterior   air   intake   grilles  
l

ocated   at   the   base   of   the   windscreen,   the   nozzles,   the   vents   and   the   air   outlets,   as   well  
a

s   the   air   extractor   located   in   the   boot.
F

o   not   cover   the   sunshine   sensor,   located   on   the   dashboard;   this   is   used   for   regulation  
o

f   the   air   conditioning   system.
F
 
O
perate   the   air   conditioning   system   for   at   least   5   to   10   minutes,   once   or   twice   a   month  
t

o   keep   it   in   per fect   working   order.
F
 
E
nsure   that   the   passenger   compartment   filter   is   in   good   condition   and   have   the   filter  
e

lements   replaced   regularly.
 W

e   recommend   the   use   of   a   combined   passenger   compartment   filter.   Thanks   to   its  
s

pecial   active   additive,   it   contributes   to   the   purification   of   the   air   breathed   by   the  
o

ccupants   and   the   cleanliness   of   the   passenger   compartment   (reduction   of   allergic  
s

ymptoms,   bad   odours   and   greasy   deposits).
F
 
T
o   ensure   correct   operation   of   the   air   conditioning   system,   you   are   also   advised   to   have  
i

t   checked   regularly   as   recommended   in   the   maintenance   and   warranty   guide.

entilate   the   passenger   compartment   for

ompartment.
The
  air   conditioning   system   does   not  
c

ontain   chlorine   and   does   not   present  
a

ny   danger   to   the   ozone   layer.
The
  condensation   created   by   the   air  
c

onditioning   results   in   a   discharge

switching
