Help - Peugeot 206sw Boot Window

Hi

I have recently bought a Peugeot 206sw (2005 reg) and I'm having trouble!

The glass window on the boot opens and I can't figure out how to do it! I opened it when I test drove it, but can't remember how. I've called my local Peugeot Garage and the guy on the phone was clueless, he said I could bring it in, but the garage is a 40 min drive away. I've googled it, but can't find any instructions.

I've even started looking in car parks for other 206sw's to see if I can ask the owners, but all to no avail!

Any ideas?

Thanks

    I've tried this, if you hold the open remote button down, it pops open the full boot, not the glass!

    The dealer still has this and is supposed to be sending it on to me!

    Surely there's a release button on the boot somewhere?

    I'd imagine that someone will come along on here eventually who has an SW and will be able to tell you. :)

    I can't see one, I've let my boss have a look and my brother - they are as baffled as me!

    I'm sure it will be something really simple!

    The rear window can open independently from the tailgate for quick and easy loading either by remote control or by simply pressing an additional button on the tailgate


    Also found this but it failed to load fully http://www.scribd.com/doc/35737015/Peugeot-206-Owners-Manual-2003.

    From memory there are two buttons under the lip above the no plate

    If this is true I think I should get a point. :)

    Thanks! I've been outside again looking at the boot and there is no additional button. There are 2 buttons on the key fob, a lock and unlock. Press the unlock once and it opens the doors, hold the unlock key down for a few secs and it opens the boot, not the window though!

    There is a small button under the tailgate but this is just a sensor button for the main boot if you didn't want to use the key.

    Getting frustrated with it now! Not sure how you are supposed to use the key fob to open the window. I've tried holding the unlock down for ages, but all is does is open the main boot, nothing else!
