Features of your vehicle
(Continued)
In cold and wet climates, the
power liftgate may not work prop-
erly due to freezing conditions.
It is recommended to wait until
the power liftgate is fully closed
before starting the vehicle. The
power liftgate may not close fully
if the vehicle is started during
automatic closing.
Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if
the power liftgate is blocked by an
object or part of the body, the power
liftgate will detect the resistance.
If the resistance is detected while
opening the liftgate, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
If the resistance is detected while
closing the liftgate, 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 liftgate is near the latched
position, the automatic stop and
reversal may not detect the resist-
ance.
If the automatic reversal feature
operates continuously more than
twice during opening or closing oper-
ation, the power liftgate may stop at
that position. At this time, close the
liftgate manually and operate the lift-
gate automatically again.
WARNING
Never place any object or part
of your body in the path of the
power liftgate as it is operating.
Doing so could result in person-
al injury.

CAUTION
Never operate the power lift
gate with any heavy objects
attached (e.g. bicycles) as it
could become damaged.
