REAR LIFTGATE
The liftgate area is only intended for cargo, not passengers. You can open
and close the liftgate from outside the vehicle. It cannot be opened from
inside the cargo area.
• To open the liftgate window,
press the control on the remote
entry transmitter or, with the
liftgate unlocked, push the right
control button under the license
plate lamp shield.
• To open the liftgate, unlock the
liftgate (with the power door
locks, the remote entry or the
keyless entry pad) and push the
center control button under the
license plate lamp shield while
pulling the liftgate.
To lock the liftgate and the liftgate
window, use the power door locks or
press the door lock switch on the
left side of the cargo area.
The liftgate door and window should be closed before driving. If not,
possible damage may occur to your vehicle.
Always close liftgate window before opening liftgate. Liftgate
glass and liftgate should never be open at the same time. Failure
to observe this warning may result in personal injury or damage to
your vehicle.
Make sure the liftgate door and/or window are closed to prevent
exhaust fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also
prevent passengers and cargo from falling out.
