Choose the power liftgate mode and
press the center of the switch.
The modes are:
MAX :Opens to maximum height.
3/4 : Opens to a reduced height
that can be set from 3/4 to fully
open. Use to prevent the liftgate
from opening into overhead objects
such as a garage door or
roof-mounted cargo. The liftgate can
be opened all the way manually.
OFF : Opens manually only.
Manual operation of a liftgate that
also has power operation requires
more effort than with a standard
manual liftgate.
To open or close the liftgate, select
MAX or the 3/4 mode and then:
. Press
btwice on the RKE
transmitter.
. Press
8on the center of the
liftgate mode switch on the
driver door, with the driver door
unlocked. .
Press the touch pad on the
liftgate outside handle after
unlocking all doors.
Press and release8on the
liftgate next to the latch to close the
liftgate.
Pressing any liftgate button, or the
touch pad while the liftgate is
moving, stops it. Pressing again
reverses the direction. There is a
minimum distance that the power
liftgate must already be open for the
system to hold it open. If movement
is stopped below that minimum, the
liftgate closes. Do not force the liftgate open or
closed during a power cycle. This
may activate the system's obstacle
detection feature and stop the
power operation.
The power liftgate may be
temporarily disabled under extreme
temperatures or low battery
conditions. If this occurs, the liftgate
can still be operated manually.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) while the power function is
in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) and accelerate before the
power liftgate latch is closed, the
liftgate may reverse to the open
position. Cargo could fall out of the
vehicle. Always make sure the
power liftgate is closed and latched
before you drive away.
If after a power opening, the liftgate
stays open momentarily, then slowly
closes with continuous chiming
sounds and turn signal flashes, the
support strut may have lost
pressure. See your dealer for
service before using the liftgate.

Obstacle Detection Features
If the liftgate encounters an obstacle
during a power open or close cycle,
a warning chime will sound and the
liftgate will automatically reverse
direction to the full closed or open
position. After removing the
obstruction, the power liftgate
operation can be used again. If the
liftgate encounters multiple
obstacles on the same power cycle,
the power function will deactivate.
After removing the obstructions, the
liftgate will resume normal power
operation.
The vehicle has pinch sensors on
the side edges of the liftgate. If an
object is caught between the liftgate
and the body and presses against
one of these sensors, the liftgate will
reverse direction and open fully. The
liftgate will remain open until it is
activated again or closed manually.
Setting the 3/4 Mode
To change the liftgate stop position:1. Select MAX or 3/4 mode and open the liftgate. 2. Stop the liftgate movement at
the desired height by pressing
any liftgate switch. Manually
adjust the liftgate position if
needed.
3. Press and hold
8on the
liftgate next to the latch until
the turn signals flash and a
beep sounds. This indicates
the setting has been recorded.
The liftgate cannot be set below a
minimum programmable height.
If there is no light flash or sound,
then the height adjustment may be
too low.
Manual Operation of Power
Liftgate
To change the liftgate to manual
operation, turn the mode switch to
the OFF position.
With the power liftgate disabled and
all of the doors unlocked, the liftgate
can be manually opened and
closed. The effort required to
operate a power liftgate is greater
than the effort required to operate a
non-power liftgate. To open the liftgate, press the touch
pad on the handle on the outside of
the liftgate, and lift the gate open.
Caution
Do not use too much force when
closing the liftgate to avoid
damage.
To close the liftgate, use the pull
cup to lower the liftgate and close.
With the power liftgate disabled, the
liftgate electric latch will still power
latch once contact is made with the
striker. Always close the liftgate
before driving.
If the RKE button is pressed while
power operation is disabled, the turn
signals flash and the liftgate will
not move.
The liftgate has an electric latch.
If the battery is disconnected or has
low voltage, the liftgate will not
open. The liftgate will resume
operation when the battery is
reconnected and charged.

Sensor, and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard
theft-deterrent system features, this
system may also have an inclination
sensor, intrusion sensor, and power
sounder.
The power sounder provides an
audible alarm which is different from
the vehicle’ s horn. It has its own
power source, and can sound an
alarm when the vehicle’ s battery is
compromised.
The inclination sensor can set off
the alarm if it senses movement of
the vehicle, such as a change in
vehicle orientation.
The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior, and can set off the
alarm it if senses an unauthorized
entry into the vehicle’s interior. Do
not allow passengers or pets to
remain in the vehicle when the
intrusion sensor is activated. Before arming the theft-deterrent
system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
.
Make sure all doors and
windows are completely closed.
. Secure any loose items such as
a sunshades.
. Make sure there are no
obstructions blocking the
sensors in the front overhead
console.

also cause the window to
auto-reverse. The window will return
to normal operation after the
obstruction or condition is removed.
Express Window Anti-Pinch

outboard passenger frontal airbag is
off. SeeAirbag On-Off Light 0113.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. For
example, the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag could
inflate even though the airbag
on-off switch is turned off.
To help avoid injury to yourself or
others, have the vehicle serviced
right away. See Airbag Readiness
Light 0112 for more information,
including important safety
information.
To turn the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag on again, insert any
key or a coin into the switch, push
in, and move the switch to the on

The front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is now enabled (may
inflate). See Airbag On-Off Light
0 113 for more information.
Servicing the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Airbags affect how the vehicle
should be serviced. There are parts
of the airbag system in several
places around the vehicle. Your
dealer and the service manual have
information about servicing the
vehicle and the airbag system.
{Warning
For up to 10 seconds after the
vehicle is turned off and the
battery is disconnected, an airbag
can still inflate during improper
service. You can be injured if you
are close to an airbag when it
inflates. Avoid yellow connectors.
They are probably part of the
airbag system. Be sure to follow
proper service procedures, and
make sure the person performing
work for you is qualified to do so.
Adding Equipment to the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Adding accessories that change the
vehicle's frame, bumper system,
height, front end or side sheet
metal, may keep the airbag system
from working properly.
The operation of the airbag system
can also be affected by changing or
moving any parts of the front seats,
safety belts, the airbag sensing and
diagnostic module, steering wheel,
