Before Driving
CAUTION!
To avoid damage, check there is enough
room to open the rear hood (or liftgate).
With the ignition device in ON position,
the red symbol will display on the
instrument cluster with the message
indicating that the rear hood (or liftgate)
is open.
NOTE:
After disconnecting the vehicle battery
from the electrical system, a door
lock/unlock cycle must be performed
using the buttons on the key fob. In this
way, when the battery is reconnect,
the release button on the dashboard
resumes normal operation (electronic
system self-acquisition procedure).
Closing the Rear Hood (or Liftgate)
Lower the rear hood (or liftgate) until it
begins to drop under its own weight.
When it stops against the lock, press on
the hood to close it completely.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the rear hood (or liftgate) to close it.
WARNING!
•
Be sure the rear hood (or liftgate)
is fully latched before driving your
vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched,
it could open when the vehicle is in
motion. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious injury or death.
•
Gear shifting is always active and
may be performed even when one
or more doors, the front and/or rear
hood (or liftgate) are open. Therefore,
in these conditions, take great care to
avoid moving the shift paddles and so
accidentally engage a gear.
