44 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Closing
LIFTGATE
Opening
To unlock the liftgate, use the key fob or acti-
vate the central locking button located on the
instrument panel below the radio.
To open the liftgate, push the liftgate electronic
release and pull the liftgate open with one fluid
motion.
Liftgate Electronic Release
Gas props support the liftgate in the open posi-
tion. However, because the gas pressure drops
with temperature, it may be necessary to assist
the props when opening the liftgate in cold
weather.
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. Lower hood to
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) and drop
the hood to close. Make sure hood is fully
closed for both latches. Never drive vehicle
unless hood is fully closed, with both latches
engaged.
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle.
You and your passengers could be injured by
these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed when
you are operating the vehicle.
If you are required to drive with the liftgate
open, make sure that all windows are closed,
and the climate control blower switch is set at
high speed. Do not use the recirculation
mode.
