While positioned at the rear of the vehicle
(center) at arms’ length distance away, begin
making the forward kicking motion. Kick the
foot under the rear bumper then immediately
return the foot back to standing position. The
kicking motion should be straight, smooth
and consistent. Your leg does not need to
touch the bumper surface but be within
3/4 inch (2 cm) to 4 inches (10 cm) of the
bumper surface. After your kick motion is
completed step back to allow the liftgate to
open/close. The liftgate should begin moving
within 1–2 seconds after the kick. This time is
needed to verify the Intelligent Key and to
validate the kick motion. Kicking again withinthis time frame (1–2 seconds) could cause the
liftgate to reverse or stop.
WARNING
Prevent unintentional liftgate opening/
closing. There may be conditions when
opening/closing the liftgate is not desired.
Keep the Intelligent Key out of the range of
the liftgate (3 ft or 1 m), when washing or
working around the back of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Interference or malfunction can be caused
by parking in close proximity to radio or
satellite towers.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and automatic operation steering col-
umn will automatically move when the shift
lever is in the P (Park) position. This allows the
driver to get into and out of the driver’s seat
more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up:
∙ When the driver’s door is opened with the ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-
tion.
∙ When the ignition switch is changed from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open. The driver’s seat and steering wheel will re-
turn to the previous position:
∙ When the ignition switch is changed from ACC or ON while the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through “Vehicle Settings” in the ve-
hicle information display by performing the
following: ∙ Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.
∙ Switch the Exit Steering UP from ON to OFF.
Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the stored memory positions will
be lost and some of the functions will be
restricted:
1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch
in the OFF position.
The entry/exit function should now work
properly.
