How to open the Smart Fortwo tailgate

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

Very simple maintenance, like we open the tailgate of a Smart Fortwo. Let's see the guide. We press the button above the tailgate handle, press and lift the glass. The tailgate of the Smart is divided into two pieces. We take the lever and pull it upwards until the lock clicks; we lower the tailgate up to the block of the metal guides. We carry out maintenance inside the luggage compartment or inside the engine compartment. To close the tailgate, first lift the lower part and then the upper part (rear window glass).
