WARNING
You or others could be injured if
caught in the path of the power
liftgate. Make sure there is no one
in the way of the liftgate as it is
opening and closing.
Notice:
If you open the liftgate
without checking for overhead
obstructions such as a garage
door, you could damage the
liftgate or the liftgate glass.
Always check to make sure the
area above and behind the liftgate
is clear before opening it.
The power liftgate mode selector
switch is located on the driver door.
The vehicle must be in P (Park) to
use the power feature. The taillamps
flash when the power liftgate
moves.
Turn the selector switch to choose
one of three modes:
MAX:
The liftgate power opens to
the full open height.
3/4:
The liftgate power opens to a
reduced open height that can be set
in a range of approximately ¾ open
to full open. Use this setting to
prevent the liftgate from opening
into overhead obstructions such as
a garage door or roof mounted
cargo during power operation. The
liftgate can still be opened fully
manually.
OFF:
The liftgate only operates
manually in this position.
Manual operation of a liftgate that
also has power operation requires
more effort than a standard manual
liftgate.
In either the MAX or the ¾ mode,
the liftgate can be power opened
and closed by:
.
Pressing and holding the power
liftgate button
&
on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
until the liftgate starts moving.
