Doors and Locks
Note: Allow the power system to open the
liftgate. Manually pushing or pulling the
liftgate may activate the system s obstacle
detection feature and stop the power
operation or reverse its direction. Manually
interfering with the liftgate motion may also
replicate a strut failure.
Note: Splashing water may cause the
hands-free liftgate to open. Keep the
intelligent access key away from the rear
bumper detection area when washing your
vehicle.
