Pre-driving checks and adjustments
.
The kick motion sensor function may not
detect a kicking motion underneath a
tow-bar (if so equipped), however the
normal functionality is retained either
side of the tow-bar (if so equipped).
.
When washing, waxing or maintaining
your vehicle, placing or replacing the
body cover, or splashing water to the area
around the kick motion sensor, turn off
the power liftgate.
.
When lots of water splashes the rear
bumper by such as heavy rain, etc. Or do
not carry the F.A.S.T. -key within the
operating range during this time.
CAUTION
.
If the hands-free access remains on, you
may be injured due to a sudden operating
of the power liftgate resulting from a
possible reaction of the kick motion sensor.
Refer to “How to turn on/off the power
liftgate” (P.3-22).
.
When the F.A.S.T.-key is carried with you
near the liftgate, even someone, who does
not carry the F.A.S.T.-key, may be able to
open or close the liftgate with a kick
motion.
.
Prevent your foot from touching the rear
bumper during a kicking motion. Other-
wise, the rear bumper and the kick motion
sensor may be damaged.
.
Do not perform a kick motion near the
exhaust system components while they are
hot. You may severely burn yourself.
.
Do not perform a kick motion on an
unstable place (for example, on a slope or
a muddy ground, etc.).
Power open or close function
The liftgate will fully open automatically using
the kick motion sensor.
1. Carry the F.A.S.T.-key.
2. Move your foot under and away from the
rear bumper similarly to a kicking motion
within the operation range of the kick
motion sensor.
3. The liftgate will automatically open or
close.
Stop and reverse function
The power liftgate will stop immediately if a
kick motion is performed during power open or
close.
And then the power liftgate will move in the
reverse direction if a kick motion is performed
again. The power liftgate can be reversed when
you carry the F.A.S.T.-key.
LIFTGATE CLOSE AND LOCK
FUNCTION
If the liftgate is pulled down to a partly open
position, the liftgate will pull itself to the closed
position.
Do not apply excessive force when the auto
closure is operating. Excessive force applied
may cause the mechanism to malfunction.
WARNING
Be careful not to trap your hands or fingers
during operation of the liftgate close and lock
function. If you think this could occur, push a
power liftgate operation switch or use the
hands-free access. The power liftgate will
return to the door ajar position.
CAUTION
.
The liftgate will automatically close from a
partly open position. To avoid pinching,
keep hands and fingers away from liftgate
opening.
.
Do not let children operate the liftgate.
