Vehicle Security - Cadillac SRX 2012 Owner's Manual

2-18 Keys, Doors, and Windows
Manual Operation of Power
Liftgate
To change the liftgate to manual
operation, turn the mode switch to
the OFF position.
With the power liftgate disabled
and all of the doors unlocked,
the liftgate can be manually opened
and closed. The effort required to
operate a power liftgate is greater
than the effort required to operate
a non-power liftgate.
To open the liftgate, press the touch
pad on the handle on the outside of
the liftgate, and lift the gate open.
To close the liftgate, use the pull
cup to lower the liftgate and close.
With the power liftgate disabled, the
liftgate electric latch will still power
latch once contact is made with the
striker. Always close the liftgate
before driving.
If the RKE button is pressed while
power operation is disabled, the turn
signals flash and the liftgate will
not move.
The liftgate has an electric latch.
If the battery is disconnected or
has low voltage, the liftgate will
not open. The liftgate will resume
operation when the battery is
reconnected and charged.
