OPENING THE TAILGATE IN AN EMERGENCY
fig. 57
To open the tailgate from the passenger compartment if the
car battery is flat or the electric tailgate lock is faulty, pro-
ceed as follows (see “Extending the boot” in this chapter)
❍ remove the rear head restraints;
❍ tilt the backrests;
❍ operate lever A to unlock the tailgate mechanically from
inside the luggage compartment.
EXTENDING THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
The luggage compartment can be partially (1/3 or 2/3)
or totally extended by splitting the rear seat fig. 59.
Proceed as follows to extend the luggage compartment:
❍ completely lower the rear seat head restraints;
❍ move the seat belt to the side, making sure that it is
correctly extended and not twisted;
❍ release the parcel shelf blind (for versions/markets,
where provided) from the backrests;
❍ operate one of the levers A-fig. 58 to fold back the re-
quired backrest (to make this procedure easier, move
the seat slightly forward using lever B, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided);
