manual operation, the door can be 
operated manually by first sliding it 
forward and back, and then in the 
desired direction.

Liftgate

Open Liftgate:
An open liftgate in a moving vehicle 
will cause exhaust gas to be drawn 
into the cabin. This gas contains CO 
(carbon monoxide), which is 
colorless, odorless, and highly 
poisonous, and it can cause loss of 
consciousness and death. Moreover, 
an open liftgate could cause 
occupants to fall out in accident. Do 
not drive with the liftgate open.
