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.
Unlock the liftgate (but do not
release it) with the power door lock
system and remote entry
transmitter.
To open the liftgate, push the
control button and pull the liftgate
rearward.
Note: Do not hang anything (bike
rack, etc.) from the spoiler/glass.
Doing so could cause serious
damage to the liftgate and its components.
• Do not open the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed area with a low
ceiling. If the liftgate is opened, the liftgate could be damaged against
a low ceiling.
• Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause
serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing
carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
Make sure that the liftgate door is closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate door open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the
vehicle.
