Press and release & on the
liftgate adjacent to the latch to
close the liftgate.
Pressing any liftgate button, or the
touchpad switch while the liftgate
is moving, stops it. Pressing the
button or RKE switch again
reverses the direction. There is a
minimum distance that the power
liftgate must already be open for the
system to hold it open. If movement
is stopped below that minimum, the
liftgate closes.
Do not force the liftgate open or
closed during a power cycle.
The power liftgate may be
temporarily disabled under
extreme temperatures or low
battery conditions. If this occurs,
the liftgate can still be operated
manually.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) while the power function
is in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) and accelerate before the
power liftgate latch is closed, the
liftgate may reverse to the open
position. Cargo could fall out of
the vehicle. Always make sure the
power liftgate is closed and latched
before you drive away.
If you power open the liftgate and
the liftgate support struts have lost
pressure, the turn signals flash
and a chime sounds. The liftgate
stays open temporarily, then slowly
closes. See your dealer for service
before using the liftgate.
Obstacle Detection Features
If the liftgate encounters an obstacle
during a power open or close
cycle, a warning chime will sound
and the liftgate will automatically
reverse direction to the full closed
or open position. After removing
the obstruction, the power liftgate
operation can be used again.
If the liftgate encounters multiple
obstacles on the same power cycle,
the power function will deactivate.
The Power Liftgate Unavailable
warning message in the Driver
Information Center (DIC) will
display. After removing the
obstructions, the liftgate will
resume normal power operation.
The vehicle has pinch sensors
located on the side edges of the
liftgate. If an object is caught
between the liftgate and the body
and presses against this sensor,
the liftgate will reverse direction and
open fully. The liftgate will remain
open until it is activated again or
closed manually.
