Keyless opening and closing of the tailgate with a foot movement*

The tailgate can be opened and closed by moving a foot under the bumper, which makes life easier when your hands are full.

 Note

One of the car's keys must be within range for locking and unlocking to work.
PS-2007-Power operated tailgate footmovement sensor
The sensor is located under the centre of the rear bumper.

One of the car's keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre (3 feet), for opening to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidental opening e.g. in a car wash.

Opening and closing with foot movement

PS-2007-Tailgate foot movement
Kicking motion within the detector's activation area.
Make one forward kicking motion under the centre of the rear bumper.
Take one step back, the bumper must not be touched.
A short acoustic signal sounds when opening or closing is activated - the tailgate is opened/closed.

If several kicking motions take place without an approved key behind the car, opening will not be possible until after a certain delay.

Do not keep your foot in the kicking motion below the car, as this can cause activation to fail.

Cancelling opening or closing with foot movement

Make one forward kicking motion while opening or closing is in progress in order to stop the movement of the tailgate.

The key does not need to be in the vicinity of the car to cancel opening or closing of the tailgate.

If the tailgate is stopped close to closed position, the next activation will open the tailgate.

 Note

There is a risk of reduced function, or no function, if the rear wing is loaded with large amounts of ice, snow, dirt or similar. For this reason, make sure you keep it clean.

 Note

Pay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash or similar if the key is within range.
