BOOT

The boot tailgate (when unlocked) can be
opened only from the outside through the
electric fig. 109 opening handle set above
the number plate holder.

If doors are unlocked the boot can be
opened at any time.

Through the set-up menu of the cluster
display (see “Reconfigurable multifunction
display” in the present chapter) it is pos-
sible to activate the “Key” option: in this
way the boot is not unlocked together
with the doors; to open it press button
R on the remote control fig. 110.
The tailgate opening is indicated by dou-
ble flashing of direction indicators.

TAILGATE CLOSING

First lower the tailgate using the appro-
priate handles fig. 111 and then push the
tailgate until it clicks into place.

IMPORTANT If option “Key” is on, be-
fore closing the boot check whether you
have with you the ignition key since the
boot will be locked automatically.

The addition of objects
(speakers, spoilers, etc.) on
the rear shelf or boot lid, ex-
cept those envisaged by the

manufacturer, may prevent the gas
filled struts at the sides of the boot
from working properly.

When using the boot, make
sure the loads do not exceed

the permitted weight (see “Technical
specifications” chapter). Also make
sure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent them
being thrown forwards and injuring
passengers should you brake sharply.

WARNING

Never travel with objects on
the rear shelf to prevent

them being thrown forwards and in-
juring passengers in case of accident
or sharp braking.
