From inside

Locking after closing

In the event of a malfunction or if you

experience difficulty opening or closing the

tailgate, have it checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop without delay,

to avoid the issue deteriorating and prevent

any risk of the tailgate dropping, potentially

causing serious injury.

► Pull the interior opening control of a door; this

unlocks the vehicle completely.

If the fault persists after closing again, the boot

will remain locked.

With selective unlocking activated:

– Opening the driver's door unlocks the

driver's door only (if the vehicle has not

already been completely unlocked).

– Opening one of the passenger doors

unlocks the rest of the vehicle.

Motorised tailgate

Check that there is enough space to

allow for the movement of the motorised

tailgate.

► Raise the tailgate.

When selective unlocking is activated, the

electronic key must be close to the rear of

the vehicle.

the dashboard.

The tailgate opens, either completely by

default, or to the position memorised

beforehand.

If motorised operation is not activated, these

actions release the tailgate (partially-open

position).

When the vehicle is locked, the request to

open the boot with one of the controls A

or B unlocks the vehicle, or only the boot if

selective unlocking is activated, prior to the

opening of the boot.

To avoid the risk of injury through pinching

or trapping, before and during operation of

the motorised tailgate:

– ensure that there is no-one close to the rear

of the vehicle.

– monitor the activity of the rear passengers,

particularly any children.

Bicycle carrier/Towing device

The motorised tailgate is not designed to support

a bicycle carrier.

There are several ways of operating the tailgate:

Closing

A. Using the Keyless Entry and Start system’s

electronic key

B. Using the exterior tailgate control

C. Using the interior tailgate control

D. Using the control on the dashboard

When installing a bicycle carrier on the towing

device with connection of the cable to the trailer

socket, the remote controls for the motorised

operation of the tailgate will be automatically

deactivated.

► A long press on the central button A of the

electronic key.

► A short press on the exterior tailgate control

However, it is still possible to use the two

controls located on the motorised tailgate.

If motorised operation is not activated, the

request to open with this function release

the tailgate (partially-open position).

► A short press on the interior tailgate control

the dashboard.

Do not perform repetitive "kicking"

movements.

It is possible to interrupt the operation of

the tailgate at any point.

Pressing one of these controls again

interrupts the movement that is underway.

Following the interruption of a movement,

pressing one of these controls again reverses

the movement.

If the tailgate is left open for an extended

period of time, the tailgate may need to

be closed manually to reset power tailgate

functionality.

If the motorised tailgate has not started to open

or close, check that:

– the function is activated.

– the electronic key is on your person, outside

the vehicle in the rear recognition area.

– the "kicking" movement was performed in the

detection zone, close enough to the bumper.

– the foot was removed from the bumper quickly

enough.

Hands-free function (Hands-

Free Tailgate Access)

When the vehicle is locked, the request to

open the tailgate with this function unlocks

the vehicle, or only the tailgate if selective

unlocking is activated, prior to the opening of

the tailgate.

Closing the tailgate with the "Hands-Free

Tailgate Access" function enables you to lock

the vehicle.

With the electronic key on your person, this

function allows the motorised tailgate to be

opened, closed or stopped via a "kicking"

movement under the rear bumper.

► Position yourself behind the vehicle by

the number plate and perform a "kicking"

movement in the "OK" detection zone.

The "Handsfree Trunk Opening"

function is configured in the Settings

> Vehicle touch screen application.

Recommendations on the hands-free

function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access)

The "kicking" movement must be given forwards,

smoothly, not too fast and with a vertical

movement from low to high. Raise the foot

sufficiently and remove it immediately.

Acknowledgement of the "kicking" movement

is confirmed by the lighting of the direction

indicators.

If it does not work, check that the electronic key

is not exposed to a source of electromagnetic

interference (e.g. smartphone).

The function may be deactivated or affected if

there is rain or snow.

Ensure that you are steady on your feet

before performing the "kicking" movement.

Take care not to touch the exhaust system

which may be hot - risk of burns!

The function may not work correctly with a 2

prosthetic leg.

Access

In some circumstances, the tailgate may open or

close by itself, particularly when:

– hitching up or removing a trailer.

– operating a towing device.

– fitting or removing a bicycle carrier.

– loading or unloading bicycles on/from a bicycle

carrier.

– depositing or lifting something behind the

vehicle.

– an animal approaches the rear bumper.

– washing the vehicle.

Memorising is not available until the height

of opening is more than or equal to 1

metre between the low position and the high

position of the tailgate.

In case of the motor overheating

Repeatedly opening and closing the

motorised tailgate can cause overheating of

its electric motor, after which opening and

closing will not be possible.

Allow at least 10 minutes for the electric

motor to cool down before operating the

tailgate again.

Manual operation

The tailgate can be manoeuvred by hand, even

with motorised operation activated.

The tailgate must be stationary.

If you are unable to wait, operate it manually.

– maintenance is performed on the vehicle.

– accessing the spare wheel.

To avoid such operating problems, keep the

electronic key away from the recognition zone

or deactivate the hands-free function.

Manual closing of the

motorised tailgate in case of

failure

With resumption of the motorised function

The motorised tailgate function can be activated

manually.

► With the boot open: vigorously move the

tailgate a little in the closing direction to

activate motorised closing.

This operation is only necessary in the case of

failure or deinitialisation/loss of the tailgate

motor.

If the failure originates from the battery, it is

recommended to recharge it or change it with

the tailgate closed.

Towing device

The installation of a towing device may

disturb the detection system.

► With the boot partly open: vigorously move

the tailgate a little in the opening direction to

activate motorised opening.

► Perform the "kicking" movement on the

right side of the towing device.

Without resumption of the motorised

function

In this situation, a significant force may be

needed to close the tailgate.

Memorising an opening

position

► Move the tailgate as slowly and smoothly as

possible.

► Close it gently without slamming, as slowly

as possible, by pushing at the centre of the

tailgate.

Assistance from the gas struts is no longer

available when opening and closing the

motorised tailgate manually. Resistance to

opening and closing is therefore quite normal.

To limit the opening angle of the motorised

tailgate:

Do not lower the tailgate by pushing at one

of its sides - risk of damage!

► move the tailgate to the desired position

manually or by pressing the button.

In wintry conditions

► press button C or the exterior control B

for more than 3 seconds (memorisation is

confirmed by a brief audible signal).

To avoid any operating problems, remove

the snow or wait until the ice melts before

requesting motorised opening of the tailgate.

A new memorisation operation cancels the

previous one.
