Default actuating Carrera spoiler

Just got an 02 C4 Cab and I don't know if the spoiler works. What's the trick they used to photograph this car, parked with spoiler up? Can't find a button, lever or any other obvious 'spoiler-upper'. Don't have an owner's manual (I'm sure it's in there somewhere).

there is a rocker switch on the panel between the dead-pedal and the drivers door. you can manualy raise/lower the spoiler that way.

It is over by the fuse panel in the driver side foot well.

On my 1999, the switch is on the fuse panel cover.

....I've got the switch there and it works, but I thought someone told me that the thing is supposed to automatically pop up when you hit 75 mph. It wasn't up after I did that, although maybe it goes back down automatically too?

Once you activate the switch the spoiler will stay up until you shut the car down. In the automatic mode, it should raise when 75 MPH is maintained for a few seconds. It should then go back down when the car reaches 35 MPH ( i believe.)
