LIFTGATE
Unlock the liftgate (but not release
it) with the power door lock system
and remote entry transmitter.
To open the liftgate, pull the liftgate
handle rearward.
Do not open the liftgate in a
garage or other enclosed area
with a low ceiling. If the liftgate is
opened, the liftgate could be
damaged against a low ceiling.
Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause
serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing
carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
Make sure that the liftgate door is closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate door open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the
vehicle.
POWER LIFTGATE (PLG) (IF EQUIPPED)
With this option, you can power open or close the liftgate with the
provided controls.
overhead console button
remote entry transmitter button
outside release handle
liftgate trim-mounted switch (closing)
Opening and Closing the PLG:
The PLG controls will operate without having the key in the ignition. The
transaxle must be in PARK to power operate the PLG, when the key is in
the ignition and turned to the ON position. When the liftgate is being
power closed, a chime will sound three times before the liftgate begins to
power close. A single chime indicates a problem with the close request.
WARNING: Make sure all persons are clear of the power liftgate
area before using the power liftgate controls to open or close the
liftgate.
