Manual Liftgate - Ford Fiesta 2019 Owner's Manual

MANUAL LIFTGATE

WARNING: It is extremely
dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a crash, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow
people to ride in any area of your vehicle
that is not equipped with seats and
seatbelts. Make sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and properly using a
seatbelt. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
WARNING: Make sure to close and
latch the liftgate to prevent drawing
exhaust fumes into your vehicle. This will
also prevent passengers and cargo from
falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the vents or windows
open so outside air comes into your
vehicle. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
Note: Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not hang anything, for example
a bike rack, from the glass or liftgate. This
could damage the liftgate and its
components.
Note: Do not leave the liftgate open when
you are driving. This could damage the
liftgate and its components.
