CAUTION
 Do not apply excessive force to the power
liftgate when opening or closing it. Doing so
could damage to the power liftgate.
NOTE
 Do not start the Plug-in Hybrid EV System
while the power liftgate is operating. The
sudden operation prevention mechanism
could operate, making the power liftgate stop
intermittently while it moves.
 The power liftgate cannot be opened when
the 12 V starter battery is discharged or dis-
connected.
The liftgate must be then opened using the
inside liftgate release.
Refer to "Inside liftgate release" on page
5-34.
 If the keyless entry system or close switch is
operated when the power liftgate main
switch is off, the warning buzzer sounds 4
times to notify the driver that the power lift-
gate cannot be operated.
 The power liftgate does not operate normally
under the following conditions:
• When parked on an incline
• In strong winds
• When the power liftgate is covered with
snow
NOTE
 Repeated continuous opening and closing
operation of the power liftgate will activate a
built-in protection circuit and switch the
power liftgate to manual operation.
 If one of the power liftgate switches is oper-
ated while the power liftgate is operating, the
power liftgate will reverse and return to the
full open or close position.
 If the select position is moved from "P"
(PARK) position to another position while
the power liftgate is operating or completely
open, a warning buzzer will sound for
approximately 10 seconds to notify the
driver that the power liftgate is open.
 If the 12 V starter battery or fuse is replaced
while the power liftgate is open, it cannot be
closed automatically.
In this case close the power liftgate manu-
ally.
