Tailgate Release
The central locking system controls the operation of the tailgate through the tailgate actuator and the tailgate release button. The tailgate release actuator consists of a single motor that is powered in one direction and sprung returned. The actuator also incorporates the micro-switch for the tailgate contact.
- When the vehicle is unlocked and the tailgate release switch is activated, the tailgate release actuator is driven for 0.4 seconds ±0.1 second.
- With the vehicle in the unlocked state, then a press and hold of the remote unlock button (press > 4s) shall open the tailgate. It is not possible to open the tailgate with the remote key if the ignition is in position 1 or 2.
- If the vehicle is in 'SPE' (Single Point Entry), the tailgate release actuator will not operate from the tailgate release switch.
