The autolamp system also keeps the
lights on for a fixed period of time
after the ignition switch is turned to
OFF.

adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate your
headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision.

²Do not open the liftgate in a
garage or other enclosed area
with a low ceiling. If the liftgate is opened, the liftgate could be
damaged against a low ceiling.
²Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause
serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing
carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
Make sure that the liftgate door is closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate door open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the
vehicle.
