Limiting the opening angle of thetailgate
Important safety notes
You can limit the opening angle of the tailgate in the top half of its opening range. This could be useful, for example, if there is insufficient space above the tailgate.
Make sure there is sufficient clearance to
open the tailgate fully when setting the
opening angle. The tailgate could otherwise
be damaged. Ideally, set the opening angle
outside.
Activating
► To open the tailgate: pull the handle
on
the tailgate.
► To stop the opening procedure at the
desired position: press the closing button in the tailgate or pull the handle
on the outside of the tailgate again.
► To store the position: press and hold the
closing button in the tailgate until you hear
a short tone.
The opening angle limiter is activated. The tailgate will now stop in the stored position when opening.
► Press and hold the closing button in the tailgate until you hear two short tones.
