54 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE:
• The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the
vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 MPH
(0 km/h).
• The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures
below −22° F (−30° C) or temperatures above 150° F
(65° C). Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pushing any of the power
liftgate switches.
• If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position, provided it
meets sufficient resistance.
• There are also pinch sensors attached to the side of the
liftgate. Light pressure anywhere along these strips
will cause the liftgate to return to the open position.
• If the liftgate is not fully open, push the Liftgate
button on the RKE Key Fob twice to operate the
liftgate.
• If the electronic liftgate release is pushed while the
power liftgate is closing, the liftgate will reverse to the
full open position.
• If the electronic liftgate release is pushed while the
power liftgate is opening, the liftgate motor will dis-
engage to allow manual operation.
• If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions
within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop and the liftgate must be opened or closed manu-
ally.
