Abstract

See full text

The disclosure relates to a method for activating a motorized closure element assembly of a vehicle, wherein the closure element assembly comprises a closure element, a control assembly, and a sensor assembly. The measured values of the sensor assembly are monitored by the control assembly to determine whether a triggering operating situation, defined by an operating-situation condition, is present, and an activation of the closure element assembly is triggered by the control assembly upon detection of the triggering operating situation. It is proposed that an operating-situation condition of the triggering operating situation is defined by the orientation of at least one body part of the operator about the vertical axis lying within a predetermined permitted orientation range, and whether the orientation of the body part lies within the permitted orientation range is detected by the sensor assembly and, depending thereon, the activation of the closure element assembly is triggered.
