Press the close button on the inner right side of the boot hatch to close it. Press the button twice to activate a delayed close.  
The delay is approximately 30 seconds.

reach or if you are somewhere with a low ceiling, such as a garage.

hatch, it will lock and the alarm will be set for the boot.

You can adjust how much the boot hatch opens.  
If the car is often in places with a low ceiling, such as a garage, you may want to reduce the boot opening height. To have more

Once adjusted, the boot hatch will continue to open to the newly set height until changed.

press the close button, the hatch will continue to lower until it closes.
