Once unlocked, the liftgate can be opened or
closed without using the key. To open the lift-
gate, squeeze the liftgate release and pull the
liftgate open with one fluid motion.
NOTE:
•
In the event of a power malfunction, or the
RKE transmitter is inoperative, insert the
key into the liftgate lock cylinder and turn
to the right (manual lock models only).
Using the liftgate handle, pull the liftgate
open with one fluid motion.
•
Although the liftgate has no inside re-
lease mechanism, the liftgate trim panel
includes an opening with a snap-in cap
that provides access to release the latch
in the event of an electrical system mal-
function.
WARNING!
•
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your ve-
hicle. You and your passengers could be
injured by these fumes. Keep the liftgate
closed when you are operating the vehicle.
•
If you are required to drive with the liftgate
open, make sure that all windows are
closed, and the climate control blower
switch is set at high speed. Do not use the
recirculation mode.
Gas props support the liftgate in the open
position. However, because the gas pressure
drops with temperature, it may be necessary to
assist the props when opening the liftgate in
cold weather.
