Tailgate unlock (4)
The tailgate is unlocked if the button
is pressed for more than 1 second.
The hazard warning lights will blink
twice to indicate that the tailgate is
unlocked.
However, after pressing this button,
the tailgate will lock automatically
unless you open the tailgate within
30 seconds.
Also, once the tailgate is opened and
then closed, the tailgate will lock
automatically.
Smart key system operation
With a smart key, you can lock or
unlock a door (and tailgate) and even
start the engine without inserting the
key.
Carrying the smart key, you may lock
and unlock the vehicle doors (and
tailgate). Also, you may start the
engine. Refer to the following, for
more details.
Locking
Pressing the button of the front out-
side door handles with all doors (and
tailgate) closed and any door
unlocked, locks all the doors (and tail-
gate). The hazard warning lights will
blink once to indicate that all doors
(and tailgate) are locked. The button
will only operate when the smart key
is within 0.7 ~ 1m (28 ~ 40 in) from the
outside door handle. If you want to
make sure that a door has locked or
not, you should check the door lock
button inside the vehicle or pull the
outside door handle.
