Press the control button located above the
license plate. Your vehicle must be unlocked
or have the intelligent access transmitter
within 3 feet (1 meter) of the decklid to open
it.

Let the power system operate the

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.

you may need to reset it if:

• 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.
