HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE
Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone
To open or close the liftgate using hands-free activation,
use a straight in and out kicking motion under the vehicle
activation zone in the general location between the park
sensors. The activation zone is about 1 ft (0.3 m) on each
side from the centerline of the vehicle. A sweeping motion
under the activation zone can also be used for hands-free
activation to open or close the liftgate.
NOTE:
The activation zone is the same for vehicles equipped with
or without a trailer tow package.
Valid Kicking Motion
When a valid kicking motion is completed, the liftgate will
chime, the hazard lights will flash and the liftgate will open
after approximately one second, or close after
approximately three seconds. These settings can be
enabled or disabled through Uconnect Settings
Ú page 187.
NOTE:
Opening or closing the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a
valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the lift-
gate handle. If a valid Passive Entry key fob is not within
5 ft (1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond to any kicks,
and will perform inhibit chimes to inform the user about
the missing key fob.
The distance from the rear fascia/bumper to the foot
shall be no more than 8 inches (20 cm) to be recog-
nized as a valid kick.
