106 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED
Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone
To open 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 liftgate door handle. Do not move your
foot sideways or in a sweeping motion or the
sensors may not detect the motion.
Vehicles Equipped With A Trailer Tow Package
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the Trailer Tow
Package, the hands-free activation zone(s) for
the Power Liftgate will be located on the left and
right side of the receiver. Use a straight kicking
motion under either activation zone to open the
Hands-Free Liftgate.
Hands-Free Liftgate Trailer Tow Activation Zones
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. This assumes all options are
enabled in the Uconnect system.
NOTE:
To open 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.
NOTE:
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 position,
provided it meets sufficient resistance.
There are pinch sensors attached to the side
of the liftgate opening. Light pressure
anywhere along these strips will cause the
liftgate to return to the open position.
If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the
system will automatically stop. If this occurs,
the liftgate must be operated manually.
CAUTION!
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be
turned on or off in Uconnect Settings. The
Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be turned
off during jacking, tire changing, and vehicle
service Ú page 210.
