Force limitation
Power tailgate (in the future just doors) has a force limiting function. If the lid encounters an obstacle when closing, it stops and an audible signal sounds. If the entire vehicle is pushed while opening or closing the boot lid due to getting into the vehicle too quickly, the door may stop.
Manual opening and closing
Opening and closing the tailgate manually is only permitted in exceptional cases. This should be done slowly, without jerking, pressing the door in the middle.
Carefully! You can stop the lid by holding it a little. Never try to push the lid when it is being closed by the motor. Doing so may damage the trunk lid motor. If you close the lid manually, pay attention to the fact that when guiding the lid into the lock, you should press on it in the middle of the edge, above the SKODA emblem. Pulling or pressing on the edge of the cover may damage the drive. Before opening or closing the lid, make sure that there are no objects in the movement area that could interfere with the opening/closing of the lid (e.g. cargo on a roof rack or on a trailer, etc.) - risk of damage to the lid! Make sure that over the open lid remains at least! 0 cm free space (e.g. up to the garage ceiling). Otherwise, after unloading the vehicle (e.g. luggage unloading) There may be too little space above the open tailgate - risk of damage to the lid! If the lid is loaded (e.g. a thick layer of snow), under some conditions the opening process may be stopped. To return the drive to working capacity, remove the weight pressing on it from the cover. When the lid closes spontaneously (e.g. under the weight of snow), an intermittent beep sounds.

Control zones
The system distinguishes 3 zones in which the function of individual controls changes. They also distinguish between the extreme positions of the lid - completely closed (in a locked castle) and completely open. Zone 3 limits vary depending on the lid top position setting. If the upper position of the lid is in zone 2, then zone 3 is not active. Zone 2 limits vary in proportion to the top lid setting.

Lid up position, setting/clearing setting
Setting
Stop the lid at the desired position (electrically or manually). Press key B for more than 3 seconds. Saving a new position in memory is confirmed by a beep.

Erasing a setting
Carefully lift the lid by hand to its highest position. Press key B for more than 3 seconds. An audible signal will sound, the previously set height value is erased from the memory, the basic position of the maximum lid lifting height is restored. It is recommended to adjust the uppermost position of the lid, for example, in the following situations: when there are obstacles to opening the lid (e.g. at a low entrance to the garage); for ease of use (for example, with low growth). The upper position reached by the lid during automatic opening is always less than the maximum possible height that can be reached by manual opening.
The lid always rises to the height that was last memorized.
Failure in work
If the battery was disconnected and reconnected with the boot lid open, the electric drive system must be activated. Activation means manual closing of the lid. As a result, the closed position in the locked lock will be stored as the end position of the lid.
