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
will stop.

NOTE
The jam-safe equipment does not activate
during easy closure operation when the
power liftgate is between the near-shut
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 reverse direction
and stops.
Liftgate easy closure
The Easy Closure system automatically
closes the liftgate completely from the
near-shut position.
This system also operates when the liftgate
is closed manually.
WARNING
When closing a liftgate, always keep hands
and fingers away from the liftgate:
Placing hands or fingers around a liftgate is
dangerous because the liftgate closes
automatically from the near-shut position,
which could cause hands and fingers to be
pinched and injured.
NOTE
If the electric liftgate opener is pressed
while the easy closure function is
operating, the liftgate can be opened.
If the liftgate is opened/closed
repeatedly in a short period of time, the
easy closure function may not operate.
Wait for about 2 seconds and then try
again.
