CAUTION
Be sure that there is adequate space above
and behind the vehicle before opening the
tailgate automatically.
The vehicle should not be driven or moved
with the tailgate in the open position. How-
ever, if the vehicle is moved with the tailgate
in the open position, the automatic closing
function will be inoperative until one of the
following occurs:
•The tailgate is closed manually
•The ignition is switched off and the key
is removed for approximately 10
minutes (the tailgate will function again
after restart).
NOTE
If the tailgate has been opened and closed
continuously for more than 60 seconds, the
automatic function will be deactivated to
avoid overloading the electrical system. The
automatic function can be used again after
approximately 10 minutes.
If the vehicle's battery has been discharged
or disconnected, the tailgate must be
opened and closed once manually to reset
the system.
Programming the tailgate opening angleThe tailgate's maximum opening angle can be
programmed, which can be useful, for exam-
ple, if the tailgate has to be opened in a garage
with a low ceiling.
To do so:
•Open the tailgate manually, hold it at the
desired maximum opening angle and
press the tailgate's closing button for at
least 3 seconds. When the tailgate is
released, programming is complete.
•To remove this programming, open the tail-
gate manually to a higher opening angle.
Automatic closingThe power tailgate can be closed by pressing
the
button on the tailgate (see the illus-
tration) or by pressing it down.
NOTE
If the tailgate is pressed down e.g., by the
weight of snow or strong wind, it will close
automatically.
WARNING
Be sure that no one is near the tailgate when
it is opened or closed automatically. The
tailgate should never be obstructed in any
way when it is operated.
Interrupting automatic opening/closingAutomatic opening or closing the tailgate can
be interrupted in four ways:
•By pressing the button on the
lighting panel.
•By pressing the button on the
remote key.
•By pressing the button on the lower edge
of the tailgate.
•By pressing the rubber-covered button
under the outer handle on the tailgate.
If one of these actions is taken, the tailgate will
stop and reopen.
Pinch protectionIf the tailgate is obstructed while it is being
operated, the pinch protection function is acti-
vated.
•If the tailgate is being opened, the electri-
cal function will be switched off and the
tailgate will be released from the electrical
system.
•If the tailgate is being closed, it will stop
and reopen.
Operating the tailgate manuallyThe power tailgate can be disconnected from
the vehicle’s electrical system by quickly pull-

Emergency towing
07
287
WARNING
•When the vehicle is being towed, the
ignition should be in mode II (in mode I,
all of the vehicle's airbags are deacti-
vated). See page 85 for more informa-
tion about ignition modes.
•Never remove the remote key from the
ignition slot when the vehicle is being
towed. For vehicles with keyless drive,
the remote key must remain inside the
vehicle.
•The power brakes and power steering
will not function when the engine is not
running. Approximately 5 times more
pressure will be required on the brake
pedal and the steering wheel will be
considerably harder to turn.
•The towing eyelets must not be used for
pulling the vehicle out of a ditch or for
any similar purpose involving severe
strain. Do not use the towing eyelets to
pull the vehicle up onto a flat bed tow
truck.
Towing the vehicle
1. With the remote key fully pressed into the
ignition slot1, press START/STOP
ENGINE for approximately 2 seconds to
activate ignition mode II.
2. The remote key must remain in the ignition
slot
2 for the entire time that the vehicle is
being towed.
3. Keep the tow rope taut when the towing
vehicle slows down by applying light pres-
sure on the brake pedal. This will help pre-
vent jarring movements of the vehicle
being towed.
4. Be prepared to apply the brakes to stop the
vehicle being towed.
CAUTION
General towing precautions:
•Please check with state and local
authorities before attempting this type
of towing, as vehicles being towed are
subject to regulations regarding maxi-
mum towing speed, length and type of
towing device, lighting, etc.
•If the vehicle's battery is dead, attach
jumper cables (see page 119) to provide
current for releasing the electric parking
brake and to move the gear selector
from the P position to N. If this is not
possible, see page 123 for information
about manually overriding the shiftlock
system to move the gear selector from
P to N.
•Maximum speed: 50 mph (80 km/h). Do
not exceed the maximum allowable
towing speed.
•Maximum distance with front wheels on
ground: 50 miles (80 km).
•The vehicle should only be towed in the
forward direction.
1Not necessary in vehicles with the optional keyless drive.2For vehicles with the the optional keyless dirive, the remote key must be in the vehicle.
