Lit up	Possible cause	Correction
	The tailgate is open or not properly closed.	Do not drive on! Open the tailgate and then close it again.

Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly when the ignition is switched on while the vehicle runs functional checks. They will switch off after a few seconds.

A warning lamp appears in the instrument cluster display if the tailgate is open or not properly closed.

Depending on the vehicle equipment level, symbols may be displayed in the instrument cluster instead of warning lamps. These symbols are also visible when the ignition is switched off. The display will go out approximately 15 seconds after the vehicle has been locked.

WARNING

A tailgate which is not closed properly could open suddenly while the vehicle is in motion. This could lead to severe injuries.

Stop as soon as possible and close the tailgate.

After closing the tailgate, always check that it is properly secured.
