NOTE:
•If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position, provided it
meets sufficient resistance.
•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.
•The power liftgate must be in the full open position for
any of the buttons to operate. If the liftgate is not fully
open, press the Liftgate button on the Fob with Inte-
grated Key (FOBIK) to fully open the liftgate, and then
press it again to close.
•If the liftgate handle is pulled while the power liftgate is
closing, the liftgate will reverse to the full open position.
•If the liftgate handle is pulled while the power liftgate
is opening, the liftgate motor will disengage to allow
manual operation.
•The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the
vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 mph
(0 km/h).
•The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures
below22°F (30°C) or temperatures above 150°F
(65°C). Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pressing any of the power
liftgate switches.
•If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions
within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop and must be opened or closed manually.
•If your liftgate is power closing and you put the
vehicle in gear, the liftgate will continue to power
close. However, vehicle movement may result in a
detection of an obstruction.

The UConnectsystem is driven through your Bluetooth
“Hands-Free Profile” cellular phone. UConnectfeatures
Bluetoothtechnology - the global standard that enables
different electronic devices to connect to each other without
wires or a docking station, so UConnectworks no matter
where you stow your cellular phone (be it your purse,
pocket, or briefcase), as long as your phone is turned on and
has been paired to the vehicle’s UConnectsystem. The
UConnectsystem allows up to seven cellular phones to be
linked to the system. Only one linked (or paired) cellular
phone can be used with the system at a time. The system is
available in English, Spanish, or French languages.
Phone Button
The rearview mirror contains the microphone
for the system (depending on the type of
mirror and radio equipped), and either the
radio or the mirror has the two control buttons
(PHONE Button and VOICE RECOGNITION button)
that will enable you to access the system.Voice Recognition Button
Actual button location may vary with the ra-
dio. The individual buttons are described in the
“Operation” section.
The UConnectsystem can be used with any Hands-Free
Profile certified Bluetoothcellular phone. See the
UConnectwebsite for supported phones. If your cellu-
lar phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset
Profile) you may not be able to use any UConnect
features. Refer to your cellular service provider or the
phone manufacturer for details.
The UConnectsystem is fully integrated with the vehi-
cle’s audio system. The volume of the UConnectsystem
can be adjusted either from the radio volume control
knob or from the steering wheel radio control (right
switch), if so equipped.
The radio display will be used for visual prompts from
the UConnectsystem such asCELLor caller ID on
certain radios.
