Let's see how to open the automatic rear trunk lid on the BMW X5: take the key fob with the opening buttons and press the trunk release button on the fob, holding it until the trunk lid opens automatically. To close the trunk lid, use the button on the same fob. Perform this operation where there is enough space to ensure the trunk lid can open without hitting any objects.

Carry out your tasks and maintenance once the trunk lid is open (close the trunk lid using the button located above it).
