NOTE:
• In the event of a power malfunction to the
liftgate, an emergency liftgate latch release
can be used to open the liftgate. The emer-
gency liftgate latch release can be ac-
cessed through a snap-in cover located on
the liftgate trim panel.
• If liftgate is left open for an extended pe-
riod of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate
functionality.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or
cargo damage may occur. Ensure the lift-
gate travel path is clear. Make sure the
liftgate is closed and latched before driv-
ing away.
NOTE:
• The power liftgate buttons will not operate
if the vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed
is above 0 MPH (0 km/h).• The power liftgate will not operate in tem-
peratures below −22°F (−30°C) or tem-
peratures above 150° F (65° C). Be sure to
remove any buildup of snow or ice from the
liftgate before pushing any of the power
liftgate switches.
• If anything obstructs the power liftgate
while it is closing or opening, the liftgate
will automatically reverse to the closed or
open position, provided it meets sufficient
resistance.
• There are also pinch sensors attached to
the side of the liftgate. Light pressure any-
where along these strips will cause the
liftgate to return to the open position.
• If the liftgate is not fully open, push the
liftgate button on the key fob twice to
operate the liftgate.
• If the electronic liftgate release is pushed
while the power liftgate is closing, the lift-
gate will reverse to the full open position.
• If the electronic liftgate release is pushed
while the power liftgate is opening, the
liftgate motor will disengage to allow
manual operation.• If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the
system will automatically stop and the lift-
gate must be opened or closed manually.
WARNING!
• Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your ve-
hicle. You and your passengers could be
injured by these fumes. Keep the liftgate
closed when you are operating the ve-
hicle.
• If you are required to drive with the
liftgate open, make sure that all win-

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Scheduled Servicing — Non SRT
The scheduled services listed in this manual
must be done at the times or mileages speci-
fied to protect your vehicle warranty and
ensure the best vehicle performance and re-
liability. More frequent maintenance may be
needed for vehicles in severe operating con-
ditions, such as dusty areas and very short
trip driving. Inspection and service should
also be done anytime a malfunction is sus-
pected.
The oil change indicator system will remind
you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.
In the instrument cluster an “Oil Change
Required” message will be displayed and a
single chime will sound, indicating that an oil
change is necessary.
The oil change indicator message will illuminate
approximately 7,000 miles (11,200 km) after
the most recent oil change was performed. Have
your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within
500 miles (800 km).
