NOTICE
 The power tailgate can be operated when the engine is not running.
However the power operation con-
sumes large amounts of vehicle elec-
tric power. To prevent the battery
from being discharged, do not operate
it excessively e.g.: more than approxi-
mately 10 times repeatedly.
 To prevent the battery from being dis- charged, do not leave the power tail-
gate in the open position for a long
lime.
 Do not apply excessive force while operating the power tailgate. This
could cause damage to the power tail-
gate.
 Do not modify or repair any part of the power tailgate by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
 When jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle, do
not operate the power tailgate. This
could cause the power tailgate to oper-
ate improperly.

Automatic stop and reversal
If, during power opening or closing, the
tailgate is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the power tailgate will detect
the resistance, then the chime will sound
3 times, and it will stop movement or
move to the full open position to allow theobject to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such as from an object that is thin or soft, orthe tailgate is near the latched position,
the automatic stop and reversal may notdetect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
tailgate is forced by a strong impact, the
automatic stop and reversal may oper-
ate. If the automatic stop and reversal feature
operates continuously more than twice
during one opening or closing operation,
the power tailgate may stop at that posi-
tion. At this time, close the tailgate man-
ually and operate the tailgate automati-cally again.
