.
One of the vehicle's remote keys must be within
range behind the vehicle (approx. 1 meter (3
feet)) for opening and closing to be possible. This
applies even if the vehicle is unlocked in order to
prevent the trunk lid from inadvertently opening
e.g. at a car wash.
Foot movement operation Kicking motion within the sensor's activation area.

Make one slow forward kicking motion with
your foot under the left section of the rear
bumper. Take a step back. Do not touch the
bumper.

A brief audible signal will be heard when
opening or closing is activated - the tail-
gate will open/close.
If the tailgate is open, it will close 19

the foot motion sensor is activated.
If several opening attempts have been made
without the remote key in range behind the vehi-
cle, foot movement operation will not be available
for a short period of time. Do not keep your foot under the vehicle in a kick-
ing motion. This may prevent activation.
Interrupting opening or closing with a foot
movement
– Make one slow forward kicking motion while
the tailgate is opening or closing to stop its
movement.
The remote key does not need to be within range
of the vehicle to interrupt opening or closing.
If the tailgate stops near the closed position, it
will open the next time it is activated.
NOTE There is a risk of reduced or lost function if
there are large amounts of snow, ice, dirt, etc.
on the rear bumper. Make sure to keep the
bumper clean.

Please note that the system could be inadver-
tently activated in a car wash or similar if the
remote key is within range.

resistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases the
steering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-
cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-
ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. When
parking and at low speeds, it will be easier to
move the steering wheel.
NOTE In some situations, the power steering may
become too hot and require temporary cool-
ing – during such time the power steering will
work at reduced output and the steering
wheel may feel more difficult to move.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer-
ing assistance, the driver display shows a
message as well as a STEERING WHEEL
symbol.
WARNING
While the power steering is working at
reduced power, the driver support functions
and systems with steering assistance are not
available.
In such a situation, the driver display shows
the
Power steering failure message, com-
bined with a STEERING WHEEL symbol.
