you didnt read my reply correctly.
you cant use autoclose any other way other then actually pressing autoclose button on the hatch itself.
It would not close from remote nor from inside of the car. Its a shame that for liability reasons they cant enable the function the way it would make things much more convinient.
I know my wife 5'1" and she ether way has to seriously reach to close the hatch if there would be the button or if she has to manually close it, there would be no advantage for me what so ever for Autoclose.
