Folding Rear Window

A special feature is the two-part liftgate. Integrated in this liftgate is a folding rear window. This can be opened separately from the liftgate for fast and convenient loading and unloading of small items.

Hydraulic dampers hold the rear window in the open position.

To open the folding rear window, the luggage compartment release button on the remote control must be pressed for more than 1.6 seconds or the rear window release switch in the lower area of the rear window must be pressed. The folding rear window is then unlocked and can be opened by hand.

To open the whole liftgate, the luggage compartment release button on the remote control must be briefly pressed twice within 3 seconds or the rear window release switch in the lower area of the rear window must be pressed. The liftgate is then unlocked and can be opened by hand.

If one entryway is open, the other remains locked and cannot be opened. Both entryways are locked while the vehicle is in motion and can only be unlocked after the vehicle comes to a stop and a door is opened.
