Hands-free tailgate
General points
The motorised operation of the tailgate can be
activated or deactivated in the vehicle settings
menu.
The motorised tailgate must only be operated
with the vehicle stationary.
Safety anti-pinch
The motorised tailgate has an obstacle
detection system that automatically interrupts
and reverses its movement by a few degrees to
allow the obstacle to be cleared.
Please note that this anti-pinch system is not
active at the end of the closing travel (around
1


cm from completely closed).
Check that there is enough space to
allow for the movement of the motorised
tailgate. Never introduce a finger in the locking
system of the motorised tailgate – Risk of
a serious injury!

Bicycle carrier / Towbar
The motorised tailgate is not designed to
support a bicycle carrier.
When installing a bicycle carrier on a towbar
with connection of a cable to the towbar socket,
the motorised operation of the tailgate will be
automatically deactivated.
If using a towbar or bicycle carrier not
recommended by PEUGEOT, it is essential
to deactivate the motorised operation of the
tailgate.
Motorised operation
Activation / deactivation of the
motorised operation of the tailgate is
done in the Vehicle / Driving
menu
of the touch screen.
This function is deactivated by default. To avoid the risk of injury through pinching

Precautions in use
Recommendations related
to the "Hands-Free Tailgate
Access" function
If several kicking movements to operate the
tailgate have no effect, wait a few seconds
before trying again.
The function automatically deactivates in heavy
rain or following a build-up of snow.If it does not work, check that the electronic key
is not exposed to a source of electromagnetic
pollution (smartphone etc.).
The function may not work correctly with a
prosthetic leg.
The function may not work correctly if your
vehicle is fitted with a towbar.
In some circumstances, the tailgate may open
or close by itself, particularly if:
-

y
ou hitch or unhitch a trailer,
-
y
ou fit or remove a bicycle carrier,
-
y
ou load or unload bicycles from a bicycle
c a r r i e r,
-
y
ou place or lift something behind the
vehicle,
-
an
animal approaches the rear bumper,
-
y
ou are washing your vehicle,
-
y
our vehicle is being serviced,
-
y
ou are accessing the spare wheel
(depending on version).
To avoid such operating problems, keep the
electronic key away from the sensor zone or
deactivate the "Hands-Free Tailgate Access"
function.
In wintry conditions
In the event of an accumulation of snow
on the tailgate, clear the snow before
commanding a motorised opening of the
tailgate.
The formation of ice can block the tailgate
and prevent its opening: wait until the ice
melts with the heating of the passenger
compartment.
When washing
When washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, do not forget to lock your vehicle
to avoid the risk of unexpected opening.
Reinitialising the motorised
tailgate
This operation is necessary where there is no
movement – after detection of an obstacle,
connecting or recharging the battery, etc.
F

O
pen the tailgate manually, if necessary.
F

F
ully close the tailgate manually.
If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Repeatedly opening and closing of the
motorised tailgate can cause overheating
of its electric motor, after which opening
and closing will not be possible.
Allow at least 10
minutes for the electric
motor to cool down before operating the
tailgate again.
If you are unable to wait, operate it
manually.

acid leaking.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
