Liftgate
To
unlock the liftgate from the outside, turn the key in
the cylinder clockwise or use the remote keyless
entry transmitter.
To
lock the liftgate using the key,
turn the key counterclockwise.
Open the liftgate using the handle located above the
license plate. Once slightly opened, the liftgate will rise
by itself. Lamps
in
the rear of the vehicle will come
on, illuminating the rear cargo area. See

Lamps
on
page
3-17.
Notice:
Be sure there are no overhead
obstructions, such as a garage door, before you
open the liftgate. You could slam the liftgate
into something and break the
glass.
It
can be dangerous to drive w ~~~ the liftgate
open because carbon monoxide
(CO)
gas can
come into your vehicle. You can’t see or smell
CO.
It
can cause unconsciousness and even
death. If you must drive with the liftgate open
or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the liftgate:
Make sure all other windows are
shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to
its
highest speed and select the
control setting that will force outside air
into your vehicle. See “Comfort Controls”
in
the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all
the
way.
