Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if the
power tailgate is blocked by an object or
part of the body, the power tailgate will
detect the resistance.
If the resistance is detected while
opening the tailgate, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
If the resistance is detected while clos- ing the tailgate, it will stop and move in
the opposite direction.
However, if the resistance is weak such
as from an object that is thin or soft, or
the tailgate is near the latched position,
the automatic stop and reversal may not
detect the resistance. If the automatic reversal feature operates
continuously more than twice during
opening or closing operation, the power
tailgate may stop at that position. At this
time, close the tailgate manually and
operate the tailgate automatically again.

WARNING - Hood
Before closing the hood, ensurethat all obstructions are removed
from the hood opening. Closing
the hood with an obstruction
present in the hood opening may
result in property damage or
severe personal injury.
Do not leave gloves, rags or any other combustible material in the
engine compartment. Doing so
may cause a heat-induced fire.
WARNING
Always double check to be surethat the hood is firmly latched
before driving away. If it is not
latched, the hood could fly open
while the vehicle is being driven,
causing a total loss of visibility,
which might result in an accident.
The support rod must be inserted completely into the hole whenev-
er you inspect the engine com-
partment. This will prevent the
hood from falling and possibly
injuring you.
Do not move the vehicle with the hood raised. The view will be
blocked and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
