.
Press and release 8 on the
liftgate next to the latch to close
the liftgate.
Pressing any button that operates
the power liftgate, or the touch pad
while the liftgate is moving, stops it.
Pressing the button or RKE 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.
If the transmission is shifted out of
P (Park) while the power function is
in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If the transmission is shifted out of
P (Park) and the vehicle accelerates
before the power liftgate latch is
closed, the liftgate may reverse to
the open position. Cargo could fall
out of the vehicle. Close and latch
the power liftgate before driving.
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 the liftgate is powered open and
the liftgate support struts have lost
pressure, the turn signals will flash
and a chime will sound. The liftgate
will stay open, and then slowly
close. 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
obstacle, the power liftgate can be
used again. If the liftgate encounters
multiple obstacles on the same
power cycle, the power function will
deactivate. After removing the
obstacles, the liftgate will resume
normal power operation.
The vehicle has pinch sensors 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.
Setting the Power Liftgate
Intermediate Mode
To change the liftgate stop position:
1. Turn the liftgate switch to either
the MAX, or the ¾ mode position
and power open the liftgate.
