Lock The Vehicle
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.
NOTE:
The liftgate will not power open or close if the gear
selector is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 mph
(0 km/h).
If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically re-
verse to the closed or open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
There are pinch sensors attached to the side of the
liftgate opening. Light pressure anywhere along these
strips will cause the liftgate to return to the open
position.
If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions
within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop. If this occurs, the liftgate must be opened or closed
manually.
The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures below
−22° F (−30° C) or temperatures about 150° F (65° C). Be
sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice from the
liftgate before pushing any of the power liftgate switches.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended period of time,
the liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset
power liftgate functionality.
Gas props support the liftgate in the open position.
However, because the gas pressure drops with tempera-
ture, it may be necessary to assist the props when
opening the liftgate in cold weather.
Before driving off, check the instrument cluster for a
liftgate or door open message or warning indicator.
Failure to do this could result in unintentionally leaving
the liftgate open while driving.
