How to Open the Boot on a Citroën C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Checks and maintenance

To open the boot on a Citroën C3, you do not need to press any buttons from inside the cabin, as the tailgate must simply be unlocked from the outside. In the centre of the tailgate, just above the number plate, you will find the button that unlocks the actuator. Once you press the button, push the tailgate upwards to open it fully; to close it again, push down on the tailgate so that the actuator locks once more.
