Liftgate - Chevrolet 2008 Equinox Owner's Manual

Liftgate

CAUTION:
{
It can be dangerous to drive with the liftgate or
liftglass open because carbon monoxide (CO)
gas can come into your vehicle. You cannot
see or smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness
and even death. If you must drive with the
liftgate open or if electrical wiring or other
cable connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the liftgate or liftglass:
•
Make sure all other windows are shut.
•
Turn the fan on your climate control system
to its highest speed and select the control
setting that will force outside air into your
vehicle. See "Climate Control System"
in the Index.
•
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See Engine Exhaust on page 2-35.
To unlock the liftgate, press the unlock button on
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter twice or
use the power door lock switch.
To lock the liftgate, press the lock button on the
RKE transmitter or use the power door lock switch.
The liftgate does not have a key lock cylinder.
To open the liftgate, press the touchpad centered
on the underside of the liftgate handle and pull up.
When closing the liftgate, use the molded handles
to pull the liftgate down. Push the liftgate closed
