3.Slowly close the tailgate manually.
4.Press the power tailgate open/close button outside the vehicle. The power tailgate will
open with a chime sound.
NOTE
僅 In some circumstances resetting the power tailgate operation may need to be per-
formed. Some instances where resetting the power tailgate may be required include:
- When the 12-volt battery is recharged
- When the 12-volt battery is reinstalled after removal or replacement
- When the related fuse is reinstalled after removal or replacement
僅 Wait until the tailgate fully opens to complete resetting. If the tailgate stops before it is
fully open, resetting cannot be completed.
僅 If the power tailgate does not operate properly after the above procedure, we recom-
mend the system inspected by an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
