Opening the tailgate manually

The tailgate is held closed by an electronic locking mechanism. To open:

1. Press lightly on the rubberized plate under the handle to release the lock.

2. Lift the handle to open the tailgate.

• When opening the tailgate, pull it up using the handle. Too much pressure on the rubberized plate can damage its electrical connections.
