NOTE
If the power liftgate switch/power liftgate close
switch/power liftgate button on the transmitter
is pressed or the outside handle is operated
while the liftgate is opening/closing
electrically, the beep sound is heard and the
liftgate moves in the reverse direction
automatically. If this operation is repeated the
system switches to manual operation.
Jam-safe equipment
While the power liftgate is opening/
closing electrically and the system detects
a person or an object in the liftgate's path,
the liftgate will move in the reverse
direction automatically.
WARNING
Always check the area around the
power liftgate before opening/closing
it:
Not checking for occupants and
objects around the power liftgate
before opening/closing it is
dangerous. The jam-safe equipment
is designed to prevent jamming in the
event an obstruction is in the
liftgate's path. The system may not
detect certain objects obstructing the
liftgate depending on the way they
are positioned and their shape.
However, if the jam-safe function
detects an obstruction and moves the
liftgate in the reverse direction, an
occupant in the liftgate's path could
be seriously injured.

CAUTION
Sensors are installed on both ends of
the power liftgate. Be careful not to
allow the sensors to be scratched or
damaged by sharp objects, otherwise
the liftgate may no longer open/close
automatically. In addition, if the
sensor is damaged while the liftgate
is closing automatically, the system
changes to manual operation.
NOTE
The liftgate has sensors on both sides. Be
l
careful not to damage them. If the sensors
are damaged, the power liftgate will not
function properly.
The jam-safe equipment does not activate
l
during easy closure operation when the
power liftgate is between the door-ajar
position and fully closed position.
When the power liftgate is moving in the
open/close direction and an obstruction is
detected, the beep sound will be heard and
the liftgate moves in the opposite
direction.
