Tailgate open
When pressing the tailgate switch for more than 0.1 second with driver door unlocked and vehicle
power OFF, ACC ON or IGN ON. However, it is turned ON when the vehicle speed is below 3
The tailgate open relay is turned OFF immediately after the driver door is locked or the vehicle speed
goes over 3 km/h with IGN ON during its operation. However, the BCM does not operate if the tailgate
open switch is pressed when the vehicle speed is above 3 km/h. 1.

open - Without SKM
When pressing the tailgate switch for more than 0.1 second with driver door unlocked and vehicle
The tailgate open relay is turned OFF immediately after the driver door is locked or the vehicle speed
goes over 3 km/h during its operation.
When the tailgate switch on smart key is pressed in theft deterrent mode or with the smart key
detected by the exterior antenna, the SKM verifies the smart key and disarms the tailgate only. When
the tailgate is open and closed, the system enters into the theft deterrent mode again. If the tailgate
switch is not operated for 30 seconds, the system also does so.
The BCM checks that the verified smart key is in the luggage room 1 second after when the closed
tailgate is detected by the tailgate open switch with power OFF.
If there is a verified smart key in the luggage room when the tailgate is open and closed in theft
deterrent mode, the external buzzer sounds for 5 seconds.
When the driver press the tailgate open switch in order to look for the smart key, the BCM deactivates
lock so that the tailgate can be opened even though the driver door is locked. (maintains standby for
opening without verification) 1.

Luminous intensity is a measure for the amount of light which passes through the unit area per
time unit. The SI unit of luminous intensity is the candela (cd), an SI base unit. -Luminous Intensity
Luminance describes the amount of light that passes through or is emitted from a particular area,
and falls within a given solid angle. It is measured in sb or nt. -Luminance
This indicates the amount of light reaching a given area. Measuring unit is lux (lx) and it is not
directly proportional to the brightness of the area as the reflection rate is not included. -Intensity of illumination
The LED stands for "Light Emitting Diode" or "Luminescent Diode." LED is a semiconductor diode
that emits incoherent narrow-spectrum light when electrically biased in the forward direction of the
p-n junction, as in the common LED circuit. In short, it is an element that converts electric signals
into light signals. Yellow, blue, red and white LEDs are currently available.
The followings are the advantages of LED.
It is not glaring and doesn't have short circuit unlike the conventional lamps.
It is semi-permanent and doesn't generate heat.
Its power consumption is much lower than those of conventional bulbs. -

1. WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
1) AUTO Washer Coupled Wiper Function
If you press the AUTO washer switch briefly with the ignition key ON and INT-AUTO switch "OFF", the
washer motor is operated for about 2 seconds to spray washer fluid once after the switch is turned ON
and the wiper relay is turned ON for 4 cycles. After that, the washer motor is operated for about 2
seconds to spray the washer fluid again and the relay is turned ON for 3 cycles and then the relay is
turned OFF.
2) Rear Washer Fluid Supply System
The front washer fluid reservoir supplies the rear washer fluid without additional washer fluid reservoir. Operating part for rear
wiper/washer

(1) Wiper mist
When the multifunction switch is pushed to the MIST position for 0.1 sec. or more with the IGN1 ON,
the wiper relay is turned on after 0.1 sec. has passed. When the wiper returns to the park position, the
wiper relay is turned off.
When the MIST switch signal is input the wiper is operated at high speed. When the switch is release
from the MIST position, the wiper is operated at low speed. 1.

(2) Wiper LO/HI control
The wiper LOW relay is turned on when the multifunction wiper switch is at the LO position. The wiper
HIGH relay is turned on when the wiper switch is at the HI position. When the wiper switch is at the HI
position, both the LOW relay (constant operation) and HIGH relay are operated.
The wiper motor returns to parking position and stops, even when turning off the ignition switch during
wiper operation.
The wiper relay should stay ON in low/high wiper operation mode even if the parking signal for the
wiper motor is not received. In INT/AUTO wiper operation mode, the wiper relay should be turned
OFF after 5 seconds if there is no parking signal for the wiper for 3 seconds and informs the driver of
parking position signal abnormality.
While the wiper operates at low/high speed, the front/rear washer switch can be operated but the auto
washer switch cannot.
The wiper motor returns to parking position and stops when turning off the ignition switch during wiper
operation in high mode. 1.

When holding the front washer switch at ON position for more than 0.6 seconds with IGN ON, the
wiper relay is activated 0.5 seconds after. The wiper stops after three more wipes since that the
washer switch is turned to "OFF" position. 1.

When holding the front washer switch at ON position for 0.1 to 0.59 seconds during the wiper
operation by the intermittent/automatic wiper switch, the wiper will operate only once. When holding
the washer switch for more than 0.6 seconds, the wiper relay is activated 0.5 seconds after. The
wiper stops after three more wipes since that the washer switch is turned to "OFF" position. 2.

When the washer switch signal is received during intermittent operation coupled with rain sensor
with IGN ON and intermittent/automatic
washer switch operation, the wipers operate in washer coupled mode regardless of the
communication with the rain sensor. However, if the washer switch
signal is received the washer relay is activated and wiper relay remains activated,
when the data coupled with rain sensor indicates continuous wiper operation.
Even though the wiping system is in washer coupled wiper mode, the operating data are sent to
rain sensor. 1.
