To open the liftgate with outside
liftgate control button (manual
actuation):
1. Unlock the liftgate with the
remote entry transmitter or power
door unlock control.
2. Press the control button located
in the top of the liftgate pull cup
handle.
Note:
For the best performance
allow the power system to open the liftgate after releasing the control
button. Continued upward force after unlatching may activate the
obstacle detection feature and stop the power operation.
Note:
If weight is added to the gate (bike rack, snow, etc.) the gate may
automatically start a power close event immediately after a power open.
In this mode a unique continuous chime will sound.
To close the liftgate with the
rear cargo area control button:
Press and release the control on the
left rear quarter panel to close the
liftgate. The chime will beep once if
conditions are not correct to start
an operation (i.e., the vehicle is out
of park). In a normal close, the
chime will begin just before the gate
starts to move and continue for total
of three seconds.
Note:
The rear cargo area control button is disabled when the liftgate is
latched (fully closed).
WARNING:
Keep clear of the liftgate when activating the rear
switch.
Note:
The liftgate movement direction can be reversed with a second
press of the instrument panel, or the rear cargo area control button, or a
second double press of the remote entry transmitter button.
