WARNING

If there is a valid key in the proximity of the
rear lid, in some cases the Easy Open func-
tion may be accidentally activated and the
rear lid will open, for example, when
sweeping under the rear bumper, when di-
recting a water jet or high pressure steam
to the area or when carrying out mainte-
nance work or repairs in that area. If acci-
dentally opened, the rear lid could injure
somebody situated in its area of operation
or cause material damage.

●

Therefore, always make sure that there is

no unsupervised valid key in the area near
the rear lid.

●

Before carrying out any maintenance or

repair work on the vehicle, always disable
the Easy Open feature via the infotainment
system.

●

Before washing the vehicle, always disa-

ble the Easy Open feature via the infotain-
ment system.

●

Before attaching a bicycle rack or a trail-

er,

, always disable the Easy

Open feature via the infotainment system.

CAUTION

The sensor surfaces on the door handles
could engage if hit with a water jet or high
pressure steam if there is a valid vehicle
key in the proximity. If at least one of the
electric windows is open and the sensor
surface

(arrow) on one of the handles is

activated continuously, all windows will
close.

Note

●

If the vehicle battery has little or no

charge, or the vehicle key battery is almost
or entirely out of charge, you will probably
not be able to lock or unlock the vehicle
with the Keyless Access system. The vehi-
cle can be unlocked or locked manually
