74 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
POWER LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED
The power liftgate may be opened by
pushing the electronic liftgate release
handle Ú page 24, or by pushing the
liftgate button on the key fob. Push
the liftgate button on the key fob twice within
five seconds to open or close the power liftgate.
NOTE:
When using the liftgate button on the key fob
to open the liftgate while the vehicle is
locked, only the liftgate will unlock leaving
the other doors to remain locked. Closing the
liftgate will not re-lock the liftgate. The lock
button on the key fob, or the Passive Entry
lock button must be pushed to re-lock.
When using the Passive Entry button to open
the liftgate, and the vehicle doors unlock (if
“Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is selected in the
Passive Entry settings), the liftgate and
vehicle doors must be locked using the lock
button on the key fob, the Passive Entry lock
button, or the lock buttons on the interior
front door panels.
The power liftgate may also be opened or closed
by pushing the liftgate button located on the
front overhead console. If the liftgate is fully
open, the liftgate can be closed by pushing the
liftgate button located on the left rear trim
panel. If the liftgate is in motion, pushing the
button again will reverse the liftgate.
When the liftgate button on the key fob is
pushed two times, the turn signals will flash to
signal that the liftgate is opening or closing (if
Flash Lamps with Lock is enabled in the
Uconnect Settings), and the liftgate chime will
be audible. The chime can be turned on or off
through the Uconnect Settings Ú page 171.
NOTE:
In the event of a power malfunction to the lift-
gate, an emergency liftgate latch release can
be used to open the liftgate. The emergency
liftgate latch release can be accessed
through a snap-in cover located on the lift-
gate trim panel.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended
period of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate func-
tionality.
NOTE:
The power liftgate will not operate in
temperatures below −22°F (−30°C) or
temperatures above 150°F (65°C). Be sure
to remove any buildup of snow or ice from the
liftgate before pushing any of the power lift-
gate switches.
If anything obstructs the power liftgate while
it is closing or opening, the liftgate will auto-
matically reverse to the closed or open posi-
tion. After multiple obstructions in the same
cycle, the liftgate will automatically stop and
must be opened or closed manually.
There are also pinch sensors attached to the
side of the liftgate. Light pressure anywhere
along these strips will cause the liftgate to
return to the open position.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or
cargo damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate
travel path is clear. Make sure the liftgate is
closed and latched before driving away.
