3 feet (1 meter) of the decklid to open
it.
Note: Let the power system operate

Obstacle Detection
The decklid will reverse to full open if
it detects an obstacle while closing.
Three chimes will sound as the decklid

Before driving off, check the
instrument cluster for a trunk ajar or
door ajar message or warning indicator.
Failure to do this could result in
unintentionally leaving the decklid
open while driving.
The decklid will stop and three chimes
will sound if it detects an obstacle
while opening. Remove the obstacle
to operate the decklid.
Resetting the Power Decklid
The decklid may not operate properly
and you may need to reset it if:
• the battery is dead or has low voltage
• you disconnect the battery
• you manually close the decklid and leave it unlatched.
To reset the power decklid:
1. Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds then reconnect the
battery.
2. Manually close and fully latch the decklid.
3. Power open the decklid using the remote control or instrument panel
button.

Easy Entry and Exit Feature
When you switch the ignition off, the
steering column will move to the full
up position to allow extra room to exit
your vehicle. The column will return
to the previous setting when you
switch the ignition on. You can enable
or disable this feature in the
information display. See Information
Displays (page 101).
Memory Feature
You can save and recall the steering
column position with the memory
function. See Memory Function
(page 137).
Pressing the adjustment control
during memory recall cancels the
operation. The column responds to
the adjustment control.
The steering column sets a stopping
position just short of the end of the
column position to prevent damage
to the steering column. A new
stopping position sets if the steering
column encounters an object when
tilting or telescoping.
To reset the steering column to its
normal stopping position:
1. Press the steering column control again after encountering the new
stopping position.
2. Continue pressing the control until it reaches the end of the column
position.
A new stopping position is set. The
next time you tilt or telescope the
steering column, it will stop just short
of the end of the column position.AUDIO CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
