Ford Expedition 2014 Owner's Manual page 74

To manually operate the liftgate:
Note: Manual operation is suggested on extreme inclines or in extreme
cold -40°F (-40°C).
Note: In the event of a power failure, the latch can be accessed and
released from the inside using the access panel on the liftgate trim.
1. Disable the liftgate power function in the information display. See the
Information Displays chapter.
2. Open and close the liftgate as you would a standard liftgate.
Obstacle Detection
Note: Entering your vehicle while the liftgate is closing can cause it to
bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, let the power
liftgate fully close before entering the vehicle.
The power liftgate system is equipped with an obstacle detection feature.
If the power liftgate is closing, the system is designed to reverse to full
open when it encounters a solid obstacle. A three second chime is also
sounded when an obstacle is detected. Once the obstacle is removed, the
liftgate can be closed under power.
If the power liftgate is opening, the system is designed to stop when it
encounters a solid obstacle. A chime will sound for three seconds while
the obstacle is present.

Locks
Press and release the control on
the left rear quarter panel. A chime
will beep once if conditions are
not correct to start an operation
(i.e., the vehicle is out of park).
In a normal close, the chime will

move and continue for a total of
three seconds.
