GENERAL INFORMATION

Use of a six-sided key for closing of the electric hatch manually

Because of complexity of the mechanism of the drive of the hatch considerable experience and knowledge is necessary to restore, replace or adjust hatch elements. Access to elements of the hatch requires removal of an upholstery of a ceiling that is very difficult operation. Therefore this work needs to be performed at the station.

On models with the electric drive of the hatch if the drive engine does not work, first of all check the fuse. As a last resort the hatch can be closed manually with use of a six-sided key. For access to the mechanism of closing of the hatch it is necessary to remove the top console from a ceiling upholstery.
