ter under the rear bumper
NOTE
One of the remote keys must be in your pos-
session or within range when you are behind
the vehicle in order to activate the foot move-
ment sensor, even if the tailgate is already
unlocked. This is done to help prevent the
sensor from inadvertently opening the tail-
gate, for example, in a car wash.
Be sure that the key is not within range when
the vehicle is in an automatic carwash.

With the remote key within range, move your
foot slowly forward in a kicking motion below
the left section of the rear bumper without
touching the bumper and take a step back.
> A brief audible signal will sound when the
tailgate begins to open/close.
The tailgate can be closed (or closed and locked)
by pressing the
or buttons on the lower
edge of the tailgate

.
It can also be operated manually or by pressing
the button on the lighting panel in the passenger
compartment or on the remote key.
If several attempts have been made to open/
close the tailgate using the foot sensor without a
remote key within range, the function will time
out and will not be available for a short period.
NOTE
Foot operation may not be possible or func-
tion normally if the sensor is obstructed by
snow, ice, dirt, etc.
Interrupting opening/closing
–
Move your foot slowly forward in a kicking
motion while the tailgate is opening/closing
to stop its movement.
No remote keys need to be within range in order
to interrupt movement of the tailgate.
