Peugeot 3008 (2017 year). Manual

Access

3008-2_en_Chap02_ouvertures_ed01-2016

When opening and closing a motorised tailgate
manually, there is no assistance from gas-filled
struts. Resistance to opening and closing is
therefore entirely normal.

Repeated opening and closing of
the motorised tailgate can cause
overheating of its electric motor, after
which opening and closing will not be
possible.
Allow at least 10 minutes for the electric
motor to cool down before operating the
tailgate again.
If you are unable to wait, operate it
manually.

Detection of obstacles

If an obstacle (person or object) is
encountered, the anti-pinch system stops the
closing movement and raises the tailgate by a
few centimetres to clear the obstacle.

Memorising an opening
position

Where height is restricted (garage with a low
ceiling, ...) it is possible to limit and memorise
the opening angle of the motorised tailgate.

This memorisation is done as follows:
F open the tailgate to the desired position,
F press button C or the exterior control B for

more than 3 seconds.

Memorisation of the maximum opening position
of the tailgate is confirmed by an audible signal.

To cancel the memorised position:
F stop the tailgate in an intermediate

position,

F press button C or the exterior control B for

more than 3 seconds.

Cancellation of the memorised position is
confirmed by an audible signal.

Manual operation

The tailgate can be opened and closed
manually, even if motorised operation is
activated.
However, any manual operation must be done
with the tailgate first stopped.

It is possible to activate automatic locking of
the vehicle on closing the tailgate, using the
Hands-Free Tailgate Access function.

F Press this button; its indicator

lamp comes on.

Pressing this button again deactivates the
function; its indicator lamp goes off.

Precautions in use

In wintry conditions

In the event of an accumulation of snow
on the tailgate, clear the snow before
commanding a motorised opening of
the tailgate.
The formation of ice can block the
tailgate and prevent its opening: wait
until the ice melts with the heating of
the passenger compartment.

When washing

When washing the vehicle in an
automatic car wash, don't forget to
lock your vehicle to avoid the risk of
unexpected opening.

Reinitialising the motorised
tailgate

This operation is necessary where there is
no movement - after detection of an obstacle,
connecting or recharging the battery, ...
F Open the tailgate manually, if necessary.
F Fully close the tailgate manually.
If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Back-up release

Unlocking

F Fold back the rear seats to gain access to

the lock from inside the boot.

F Insert a small screwdriver into hole A of the

lock to unlock the tailgate.

F Move the latch to the left.

Locking after closing

If the fault persists after closing again, the boot
will remain locked.

battery or central locking failure.

Recommendations related to the "Hands-free tailgate
access" function

If several passes of your foot below the rear
bumper fail to open the tailgate, wait a few
seconds before starting again.

The function is automatically deactivated in the
event of heavy rain or accumulation of snow.

If the function fails to operate, check that
the electronic key is not exposed to strong
electromagnetic interference (a smartphone, ...).

The function may not work correctly with a
prosthetic leg.

The function may not work correctly if your
vehicle is fitted with a towbar.

In some circumstances, the tailgate may only
open or close, particularly if:
-

your vehicle is fitted with a towbar,

you hitch or unhitch a trailer,

you fit or remove a bicycle carrier,

you load or unload bicycles from a bicycle
carrier,

you place or lift something behind the
vehicle,

an animal approaches the rear bumper,

you are washing your vehicle,

a service is being carried out on your
vehicle,

you are accessing the spare wheel
(depending on version).

To avoid such operating problems, keep the
electronic key away from the recognition zone
or deactivate "Hands-free tailgate access".

Ensure that no object or person might
prevent the correct opening or closing
of the tailgate.
Be particularly aware of children when
operating the tailgate.
