Press the liftgate button on the
center console.
Press the touchpad switch on the
outside liftgate handle.
Pressing the buttons or touchpad
switch a second time while the

direction.
The liftgate can also be closed by
pressing the power liftgate button
next to the liftgate latch. Press the
button a second time during liftgate
operation to reverse the operation.
The power liftgate may be
temporarily disabled under extreme
temperatures or under low battery
conditions. If this occurs, the liftgate
can still be operated manually.
If the vehicle is shifted out of
P (Park) while the power function is
in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If the vehicle is shifted out of P (Park)
and the vehicle accelerates before
the power liftgate latches closed, the
liftgate may reverse to the open
position. Cargo could fall out of the
vehicle. The power liftgate must be
closed and latched before driving.
If the liftgate is power opened and
the support struts have lost pressure,
the lights will flash and a chime will
sound. The liftgate will stay open
temporarily, then slowly close. See
your dealer/retailer for service before
using the liftgate if this occurs.
Obstacle Detection Features
A warning chime will sound and the
liftgate will automatically reverse
direction to the full closed or
open position if the liftgate
encounters an obstacle during a
power open or close cycle.
