102 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
To Close The Hood
Lower the hood to approximately 12 inches (30 cm) from the
engine compartment and drop it. Make sure that the hood is
completely closed.
TAILGATE
Opening
The power tailgate may be opened by pushing the tailgate
release pad located on the tailgate door.
The tailgate damper strut will lower the tailgate to the open
position (if equipped).
Electronic Tailgate Release — If Equipped
The key fob may be equipped with an electronic
release feature for the tailgate, allowing hands-free
tailgate opening. To activate, push and release the
Tailgate Release button on the key fob twice within five
seconds. The tailgate door will unlatch, and slowly lower
into the open position.
If equipped, a button on the center overhead console inside
the vehicle can be used to release the tailgate.
NOTE:
The Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover (if equipped) may prevent Elec-
tronic Tailgate Release if installed. The Tonneau Cover must
be removed or folded up before releasing the tailgate. Refer
to “Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover If Equipped” in “Getting To
Know Your Vehicle” for further information.
WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your
vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision.
Failure to follow this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to
close it. Use a firm downward push at the front center of
the hood to ensure that both latches engage.
