Power Liftgate - Cadillac 2008 SRX Owner's Manual

Power Liftgate

Power Liftgate Operation
Your vehicle has a power liftgate. The vehicle must be
in PARK (P) to power open or close the liftgate.
The liftgate must be completely closed to power open
or completely opened to power close.
The taillamps will flash and a chime will sound at the
beginning of each power operation cycle.
CAUTION:
{
You or others could be injured if caught in
the path of the power liftgate. Make sure
there is no one in the way of the liftgate as
it is opening and closing.
Notice: If you open the liftgate without checking
for overhead obstructions such as a garage door,
you could damage the liftgate or the liftgate glass.
Always check to make sure the area above and
behind the liftgate is clear before opening it.
To open and close the liftgate, press and hold the
power liftgate button on the Remote Keyless Entry
transmitter (RKE) until the liftgate starts moving. Press
the RKE button a second time to reverse that operation.
See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation
on page 2-5 for more information.
The liftgate can also be power closed by pressing
the power liftgate button next to the liftgate latch.
Press the button a second time during liftgate operation
to reverse that operation. The power liftgate may be
temporarily disabled under extreme temperatures or
low battery condition. If this occurs, the liftgate can
still be operated manually.
