OFF: The liftgate only operates
manually in this position.
Manual operation of a liftgate that
also has power operation requires
more effort than with a standard
manual liftgate.
In either the MAX or the 3/4 mode,
the liftgate can be power opened
and closed by:
.
Pressing h on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
until the liftgate starts moving.
See Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation on
page 2-3.
.
Pressing 8 on the center of
the mode switch on the driver
door, with the driver door
unlocked.
.
Pressing the touch pad button
on the liftgate outside handle,
with all doors unlocked, to open
the liftgate.
Press and release 8 on the
liftgate next to the latch to close the
liftgate.
Pressing any liftgate button, or the
touch pad button 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.
