Setting the Power
Liftgate 3/4 Mode
To change the liftgate stop position.
1. Turn the liftgate switch to
either the MAX, or the 3/4 mode
position and power open the
liftgate.
2. Stop the liftgate movement at
the desired height by pressing
any liftgate switch. Manually
adjust the liftgate position if
required.
3. Press and hold the button on the
liftgate adjacent to the latch until
the turn signals flash and a beep
sounds to indicate that the new
setting is recorded.
When power opened with the
3/4 mode selected, the liftgate
stops at the new set position.
If you do not hear the audible and
visual feedback when setting the
intermediate stop position, you
are attempting to set the height
below the 3/4 open height minimum
(approximately 16.4 m or 5 ft).
The liftgate cannot be set below
that minimum and the new setting
will not be recorded.
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. Manual efforts of a
vehicle equipped with a power
liftgate will be higher than a
standard non-power liftgate.

To open the liftgate, press the
touchpad 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.
