2014 LINCOLN MKT transmission

WARNING:Keep keys out of reach of children. Do not allow
children to play near an open or moving power liftgate.
Note:Cycling the ignition while the liftgate is power closing and is
6–10 inches (15–24 cm) from being latched may cause the liftgate to
reverse to full open position. Make sure that the liftgate is closed before
operating or moving the vehicle, especially in an enclosure, like a garage
or a parking structure. The liftgate or its components could be damaged.
Note:Do not drive with the liftgate open without first disabling the
power function and securing the liftgate to the vehicle.
Note:In case of operation in extreme cold -40°F (-40°C), or on extreme
inclines, manual operation of the liftgate is suggested.
The power liftgate can be enabled or disabled using the information
display. The remote control and instrument panel button will still operate
the liftgate regardless of the setting.
Opening and Closing the Power Liftgate
Note:The liftgate movement direction can be reversed with a second
press of the instrument panel, or the control button on the liftgate, or a
second double press of the transmitter button.
The liftgate will only operate with the vehicle in P (Park).
A chime will sound three times as the liftgate begins to power close.
A single chime indicates a problem with the close request, caused by:
•the ignition is on and the transmission is not in P (Park);
•or the battery voltage is below the minimum operating voltage;
•or the vehicle speed is at or above 3 mph (5 km/h).
If the liftgate reverses and starts to close after an open request, a fast
continuous chime indicates excessive load on the gate or a possible strut
failure. See your authorized dealer if you still have a fast chime after the
load is removed.
To open or close from the instrument panel:Press the
instrument panel button.
To open or close with the remote control:Press the remote
control button twice within three seconds.
