How do you open the tailgate on a Volvo V70 if the battery is dead?

[Edit]

Just been in that exact situation. Need to charge battery, but as it's in the boot, you can't get to it!

The way I got around it was to connect up a portable jump start unit under the bonnet which allowed me to unlock car with remote plip.

Once I had removed battery for charging, I just relocked with plip, removed jump start and closed bonnet - all secure.

Do the same to refit battery, but just remember to set ignition to position II before connecting it up. Not sure why, just something Volvo dealer told me I needed to do.
