6. Push and hold the power lift gateswitch
*2on the lower part of the lift
gate for 3 seconds to set the user
selected open position. A chime will
sound when setting is successful.
7. Fully close the lift gate.
The lift gate will open and stop at the user
selected position.
CAUTION
. Do not lean against a partially opened
lift gate. The lift gate may close un-
expectedly and may result in personal
injury.
. If the vehicle was driven by another
person, confirm the garage mode func-
tion before opening the lift gate in a
location with low clearance. The lift gate
can be damaged if the previous driver
changed or canceled the setting.
. If the switch is pressed two times
quickly (1 second or less) when opening
the lift gate from the fully closed
position, the system may not recognize
the second switch press. The lift gate
will continue to open. This is normal
operation and does not indicate a mal- function. However, this may result in
minor personal injury if someone is
behind the vehicle when the switch is
activated, or damage to the lift gate.
NOTE:
.
To avoid damaging the lift gate system,
do not manually force the lift gate to
open or close when the lift gate is
moving. When manually operating the
lift gate from the full close or full open
position, do not use excessive force.
Using excessive force may damage the
system.
. Do not install accessories such as bike
racks onto the lift gate. The additional
weight of these accessories may cause
the lift gate to operate slowly or to not
open completely. This is a normal
operation and does not indicate a
malfunction. The lift gate will operate
normally when the accessory is re-
moved.
. If the lift gate is opened when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope, the
lift gate may not open to the expected
position. This is a normal operation
and does not indicate a malfunction. .
If the automatic lift gate is operated
continuously for approximately 180
seconds, the system automatically
turns off to prevent overheating. The
lift gate cannot be opened using the
switches. The system resets and opera-
tion returns to normal after approxi-
mately 180 seconds. This is a normal
operation and does not indicate a
malfunction.
. The lift gate may automatically reverse
direction if the lift gate is operating
and passengers enter/exit the vehicle.
This is a normal operation and does
not indicate a malfunction.
. The lift gate must be operated manually
if the battery is disconnected or
discharged.
. If the lift gate is not activated due to a
low voltage (less than approximately
11V), operate the lift gate with the
engine running.
Manual mode
If power operation is not available, the lift
gate can be operated manually. Power
operation may not be available if multiple
obstacles have been detected in a single
power cycle or if the battery voltage is low.

Compressed Audio Files (MP3/
WMA/AAC/ATRAC3)
Explanation of terms:
. MP3 —MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is
the most well known compressed
digital audio file format. This format
allows for near “CD quality”sound, but
at a fraction of the size of normal audio
files. MP3 conversion of an audio track
can reduce the file size by approxi-
mately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no perceptible loss in quality. The
compression reduces certain parts of
sound that seem inaudible to most
people.
. WMA —Windows Media Audio (WMA) is
a compressed audio format created by
Microsoft as an alternative to MP3. The
WMA codec offers greater file compres-
sion than the MP3 codec, enabling
storage of more digital audio tracks in
the same amount of space when
compared to MP3s at the same level
of quality.
. AAC/M4A —Advanced Audio Coding
(AAC) is a lossy audio compression
format. Audio files that have been
encoded with AAC are generally smaller
in size and deliver a higher quality of
sound than MP3.
. Bit rate —Bit rate denotes the number
of bits per second used by a digital
music file. The size and quality of a
compressed digital audio file is deter-
mined by the bit rate used when
encoding the file.
. Sampling frequency —Sampling fre-
quency is the rate at which the samples
of a signal are converted from analog to
digital (A/D conversion) per second. .
Multisession —Multisession is one of
the methods for writing data to media.
Writing data once to the media is called
a single session, and writing more than
once is called a multisession.
. ID3/WMA Tag —The ID3/WMA tag is the
part of the encoded MP3 or WMA file
that contains information about the
digital music file such as song title,
artist, album title, encoding bit rate,
track time duration, etc. ID3 tag in-
formation is displayed on the Album/
Artist/Track title line on the display.
