Unlike the V40 the S40 doesn't have access doors. Never having owned a S40 I am not familiar with the boot interior, but with the help of the attached instructions from the handbook and the car present it should be self explanatory.

Ah, my s40 t4 was a 1998 model which did have the access flaps, so another design masterstroke with the deletion of those flaps for the face lift model.
