first detent or rotate the door lock button until the lock
indicator is hidden. To unlock the rear doors, rotate the

door lock button until the lock indicator is hidden
(unlocked position), roll down the window, and open

almost closed. To avoid personal injury be sure to clear
your arms, hands, fingers and all objects from the
window path before closing.
Reset Auto-Up
Should the Auto-Up feature stop working, the window
probably needs to be reset. To reset Auto-Up:
1. Pull the window switch up to close the window com-pletely and continue to hold the switch up for an
additional two seconds after the window is closed.
2. Push the window switch down firmly to open the window completely and continue to hold the switch
down for an additional two seconds after the window is
fully open.
Window Lockout Switch
The window lockout switch on the driver’s door trim panel
allows you to disable the window controls on the rear
passenger doors. To disable the window controls, push and
release the window lockout button (the indicator light on
the button with turn on). To enable the window controls, push and release the window lockout button again (the
indicator light on the button will turn back off).
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears.
Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows
down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or
partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and
can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows together

LIFTGATE
Opening
To Unlock/Enter The Liftgate
The liftgate may be released by the overhead console
switch or the outside handle.
The overhead console switch will release the liftgate when
the liftgate is unlocked or locked. The outside handle
requires the liftgate to be unlocked.NOTE:
Use the interior door lock/unlock button on the
door panel or the key fob to lock and unlock the liftgate.
The manual door locks on the doors and the exterior door
lock cylinder will not lock and unlock the liftgate.

Emergency Tow Hooks — If Equipped
If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks, there will be
one in the rear and two mounted on the front of the vehicle.
The rear hook will be located on the driver’s side of the
vehicle.
NOTE:For off-road recovery, it is recommended to use
both of the front tow hooks to minimize the risk of damage
to the vehicle.
Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position, and subse-
quently in OFF/LOCK, without opening the door. During
towing, remember that not having the aid of the power
brakes and the electromechanical power steering will re-
quire greater force when applying the brakes and steering
of the vehicle.
