A locked liftgate can also be opened

When opening the liftgate with the
doors and the liftgate locked, it may
require a few seconds for the liftgate
latch to release after the electric

NOTE
The liftgate can be closed when the
doors are locked with the key left

locking the key in the vehicle, the
liftgate can be opened by pressing
the electric liftgate opener. If the

doing this procedure, press the
electric liftgate opener to fully open
the liftgate after pushing the liftgate
completely closed.
When the liftgate latch is released by
pressing the electric liftgate opener,
the liftgate raises slightly to allow
it to be opened. If the liftgate is not
operated for a certain period of time
after the electric liftgate opener has
been pressed, the liftgate cannot be
raised any more from its slightly
raised position. Press the electric
liftgate opener again to fully open
the liftgate. To close the liftgate from
its slightly raised position, open it
fi rst by pressing the electric liftgate
opener, then close it after waiting at
least 1 second.
If the liftgate is not fully closed,
the driver is notifi ed by a warning
indicated in the instrument cluster.
If the vehicle battery is dead or there
is a malfunction in the electrical
system and the liftgate cannot be
unlocked, the liftgate can be opened
by performing the emergency
procedure.
