Power Liftgate Operating
Conditions
The power liftgate operates when
the gear is in P (Park) with the engine

when the engine is off. Also, the liftgate

is below 1.8 mph (3 km/h).

close the liftgate, make sure the vehicle
is in P (Park).

unattended in your vehicle. Children
may operate the power liftgate.
