The double rear doors are fitted with a catch which stops the opening at an angle of approximately 90°.
The catch system is designed to ensure the best comfort in use. An accidental knock or gust of wind could release the doors and make them close.
It is possible to increase the opening angle of the two doors to facilitate loading and unloading operations. Force the doors open. This will allow opening the doors by approximately 180°.
When open to 180°, the doors are not blocked. Do not use this system when the vehicle is parts on a slope or when it is windy.
