Electrical Emergency Release

Electrical Emergency Release

INFORMATION:
- In the event of a flat battery, the release motors of both lids can be supplied with power through the power feed via a battery jump lead.
- An emergency power contact, coloured red for identification, is located on the fuse box in the driver's footwell.
- This emergency power contact, to which the positive jump lead is connected, can be pulled out of the fuse box by approx. 3 cm.
- The power supply is switched to the release motors by a change-over relay (mini-relay), located behind the fuse box.
- If the vehicle is locked (alarm protected), the alarm will sound if the jumper lead is connected.
- Turn off alarm system by locking and then unlocking the door lock.
