TO LOCK/CLOSE THE LIFTGATE
There are several different ways to close the liftgate:
Manually by grabbing the liftgate closing handle and
pulling in a downward motion to close the liftgate.
Release the handle when the liftgate takes over the
closing effort.
Key fob liftgate button (if equipped)
Hands-Free (if equipped)
Liftgate instrument panel button (if equipped)
Power Liftgate button on the pillar in the cargo area (if
equipped)
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
liftgate, pushing the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ — Passive Entry
lock/push button located to the left of the Back Up
Camera will lock the vehicle only.
The power liftgate may be closed by pushing the rear
power liftgate button, located in the upper left trim in the
liftgate opening. Pushing the button will only close the

HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED
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 below the rear
license plate. Do not move your foot sideways or in a
sweeping motion or the sensors may not detect the
motion.
NOTE:
The activation zone is the same for vehicles equipped with
or without a trailer tow package.
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 the Uconnect Settings
Ú page 126.
NOTE:
Opening or closing the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a
valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
door handle. If a valid Passive Entry key fob is not
within 5 ft (1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond to any
kicks.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned on or
off through the Uconnect system
Ú page 126.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be turned off
during jacking, tire changing, manual car wash, and
vehicle service.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature can be activated by
any metallic object making a similar in-and-out motion
under the rear fascia/bumper, such as cleaning using
a metal broom.
The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate when the
transmission is in PARK.
If anything obstructs the Hands-Free Liftgate while it is
opening or closing, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed/open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
