Features of your vehicle
NOTICE
The power tailgate can be operat-
ed when the engine is not running.
However the power tailgate opera-
tion consumes large amounts of
vehicle electric power. To prevent
the battery from being discharged,
do not operate it excessively e.g.:
more than approximately 10 times
repeatedly.
To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the power
tailgate in the open position for a
long lime.
Do not modify or repair any part
of the power tailgate by yourself.
Kia recommends to visit an autho-
rised Kia dealer/service partner.
When jacking up the vehicle to
change a tyre or repair the vehicle,
do not operate the power tailgate.
This could cause the power tail-
gate to operate improperly.
In cold and wet climates, the
power tailgate may not work prop-
erly due to freezing conditions.
Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if
the power tailgate is blocked by an
object or part of the body, the power
tailgate will detect the resistance.
If the resistance is detected whilst
opening the tailgate, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
If the resistance is detected whilst
closing the tailgate, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
However, if the resistance is weak
such as from an object that is thin or
soft, or the tailgate is near the latched
position, the automatic stop and rever-
sal may not detect the resistance.
If the automatic reversal feature oper-
ates continuously more than twice
during opening or closing operation,
the power tailgate may stop at that
position. At this time, close the tailgate
manually and operate the tailgate
automatically again.

WARNING
Never intentionally place any
object or part of your body in
the path of the power tailgate
to make sure the automatic
reversal operates.
Never operate power tailgate
attached with any heavy
objects (ex. Bicycles). It could
damage the power tailgate.
