Approach the rear of the vehicle and
perform a smooth upward kick movement,
taking between one and two seconds,
beneath one of the rear sensor areas.
When a valid upward kick movement is
recognised by the vehicle, the direction
indicators flash and the tailgate operates.
An audible warning is given if a valid
Smart key is not present. In this condition,
the tailgate will not operate.
Make sure that the standing area is
stable and not slippery, before
performing the kick movement.
Do not make contact with the
vehicle exhaust. It may be hot and
cause injury.
Note: A valid Smart key must be within
1.2 m of the tailgate. The Smart key may
not be detected if it is placed within a
metal container, or if it is shielded by a
device with a back-lit LCD screen, such as
a smartphone, laptop (including when
inside a laptop bag), games console, etc.
Keep the Smart key clear of such devices
when attempting hands-free tailgate
operation of the powered tailgate.
Note: Certain conditions may affect the
performance of the sensors, and
movement beneath the bumper may not
be detected. If this should happen, use
the interior tailgate release switch or the
Smart key tailgate release button. Check
the operation of the Gesture tailgate when
the vehicle is in a new location.
Unintentional opening: In exceptional
circumstances, and if the Smart key is
within 1.2 m of the tailgate, the powered
tailgate may open unintentionally due to
the following:
• Car washing / high pressure cleaning.
• Moving objects beneath the rear
bumper sensors.
• While changing a rear road wheel.
TAILGATE OPENING HEIGHT
Set the maximum opening height as
required:
1. Open the tailgate to the position
required as the maximum height. Press
any tailgate control to stop movement
at the required position. The final
position can be achieved manually, if
required.
2. Make sure the tailgate is stationary for
at least three seconds.
