Manual Liftgate Operation
With the doors unlocked, the power liftgate can
always be manually opened and closed.
To open the liftgate, pull up on the handle on the
outside of the liftgate. To close the liftgate,
use the pull cup to lower the liftgate and close.
The liftgate latch will power cinch to closed
position. Do not force the liftgate during a
power cycle.
Always close the liftgate before driving.
CAUTION:
{
It can be dangerous to drive with the
liftgate open because carbon monoxide
(CO) gas can come into your vehicle. You
can not 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
Dual Climate Control System on
page 189.
•
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the
way. See Engine Exhaust on page 132.
