Auto reverse function
The auto-reverse function enables the lift-
gate to automatically reverse when some-
thing is caught in the liftgate as it is opening
or closing. When the control unit detects an
obstacle, the liftgate will reverse and return
to the full open or full close position.
If a second obstacle is detected, the liftgate
motion will stop and the drive motor will
disengage. The liftgate will enter the manual mode.
A pinch sensor is mounted on each side of
the liftgate. If an obstacle is detected by the
pinch sensor during power close, the liftgate
will reverse and return to the full open
position immediately.
NOTE:
If the pinch sensor is damaged or removed,
the power close function will not operate.
WARNING
There is a small distance immediately
before the closed position that cannot be
detected. Make sure that all passengers
keep their hands, etc., clear from the
liftgate opening before closing the lift-
gate.
Manual mode
If power operation is not available, the
liftgate can be operated manually. Power
operation may not be available if multiple
obstacles have been detected in a single
power cycle or if the battery voltage is low.
When the power liftgate main switch is in
the OFF position, the liftgate can be opened
manually by pushing the liftgate opener
switch. If the power liftgate opener switchis pushed during power open or close, the
power operation will be canceled and the
liftgate can be operated manually.
