liftgate continues to automatically close
after opening, see your dealer for service
before using the power liftgate.

Interfering with the power liftgate motion
or manually closing the liftgate too quickly
after power opening may resemble a
support strut failure. This could also activate
the falling liftgate detection feature. Allow
the liftgate to complete its operation and
wait a few seconds before manually closing
the liftgate.

Obstacle Detection Features

If the liftgate encounters an obstacle during
a power open or close cycle, the liftgate will
automatically reverse direction and move a
short distance away from the obstacle. 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. After removing the obstructions,
manually close the liftgate which will allow
normal power operation functions to
resume.

If the vehicle is locked while the liftgate is
closing, and an obstacle is encountered that
prevents the liftgate from completely
closing, the horn will sound as an alert that
the liftgate did not close.

Setting the 3/4 Mode

To change the position the liftgate stops at
when opening:

1. Select MAX or 3/4 mode and power

open the liftgate.

2. Stop the liftgate movement at the

desired height by pressing any liftgate
switch. Manually adjust the liftgate
position if needed.

3. Press and hold

l

to the left of the

latch at the bottom of the liftgate until
the turn signals flash and a beep sounds.
This indicates the setting has been
recorded.

The liftgate cannot be set below a minimum
programmable height. If there is no light
flash or sound, then the height adjustment
may be too low.

Manual Operation

Select OFF to manually operate the liftgate.
See

Manual Liftgate

at the beginning of

this section.

Caution

Attempting to move the liftgate too
quickly and with excessive force may
result in damage to the vehicle.

Operate the liftgate manually with a
smooth motion and moderate speed. The
system includes a feature which limits the
manual closing speed to protect the
components.

Hands-Free Operation

If equipped, the liftgate may be operated
with a kicking motion near the left side of
the rear bumper at the location of the
projected logo. The RKE transmitter must be
within 1 m (3 ft) of the rear bumper to
operate the power liftgate hands-free.
