Keys, Doors, and Windows
The liftgate can be opened manually
by pressing the touch pad under the
liftgate handle, with the doors
unlocked and lifting up.
In either the MAX or the 3/4 mode,
the liftgate can be power opened
and closed by:
.
Pressing and holding
V
on the
RKE transmitter until the liftgate
starts moving. See
Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System

.
.
Pressing the power liftgate
button in the center of the mode
switch on the overhead console,
with the driver door unlocked.
Press and release
8
on the
liftgate adjacent to the latch to close
the liftgate.
Pressing any button, or the touch
pad switch, while the liftgate is
moving stops it. Pressing the button
or RKE transmitter again reverses
the direction. The touch pad switch
will stop the liftgate from moving.
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.
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 vehicle is shifted out of
P (Park) while the power function is
in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If the vehicle is shifted out of
P (Park) and accelerated before the
power liftgate latch is closed, the
liftgate may reverse to the open
position. Cargo could fall out of the
vehicle. Always make sure the
power liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.
If the liftgate is power opened and
the liftgate support struts have lost
pressure, the turn signals flash and
a chime will sound. The liftgate
stays open temporarily, and then
slowly closes. See a dealer for
service before using the liftgate.
