The tailgate can be opened and closed with no-

carrying. Two sensors detect a forward-directed
foot motion in the central rear area and the tail‐
gate is opened or closed.

To avoid locking the vehicle key in the vehicle,
do not place the vehicle key in the cargo area.
If the vehicle key is in the sensor area, the tail‐
gate may open or close inadvertently if you unin‐
tentionally move your foot or if a foot movement
is detected.
The sensor has an approximate range of
5 ft/1.50 m extending from the rear of the vehi‐
cle.
