E70 Disconnect power for Storage, Rear Hatch

[bhuang1103]

Hello,

I need to disconnect the power/battery as I am going to be away for more than 2 month. Planning to leave the car outside.

I am wondering after you disconnect the battery and close the rear hatch, how do you open the hatch again when you need to reconnect the battery? Is there a manual release switch?

And to close the rear hatch on my model I typically press a button. Without power, do you just force it down or is there a release switch also?

Thanks in advance.
