The key fob and the overhead console switch
will open the liftgate when the liftgate is
locked. The outside handle requires the lift-
gate to be unlocked. Push the button on the
key fob twice within five seconds to open or
close the liftgate.
When the liftgate button on the key fob is
pushed two times, the turn signals will flash
twice to signal that the liftgate is opening or
closing (if Flash Lamps with Lock is enabled
in the Uconnect settings), and the liftgate
chime will be audible. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner’s
Manual for further information.
NOTE:
• Before closing the liftgate, make sure to be
in possession of the key because the lift-
gate may be locked.
• 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.Lock The Vehicle
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 liftgate will not power open or close if
the gear selector is in gear or the vehicle
speed is above 0 mph (0 km/h).
• 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 pinch sensors attached to the
side of the liftgate opening. Light pressure
anywhere along these strips will cause the
liftgate to return to the open position.• If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the
system will automatically stop. If this oc-
curs, the liftgate must be opened or closed
manually.
• 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 the liftgate is left open for an extended
period of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate
functionality.
• Gas props support the liftgate in the open
position. However, because the gas pres-
sure drops with temperature, it may be
necessary to assist the props when opening
the liftgate in cold weather.
• Before driving off, check the instrument
cluster for a liftgate or door open message
or warning indicator. Failure to do this
could result in unintentionally leaving the
liftgate open while driving.

The set speed for HDC is selectable by the
driver and can be adjusted within the thresh-
olds by using throttle or brake application.
Driver Override:
The driver may override HDC activation speed
with throttle or brake application at anytime.
Deactivating HDC
HDC will be deactivated but remain available
if any of the following conditions occur:
• Driver overrides HDC set speed with a
speed exceeding 7.5 mph (12 km/h) but
remains below 25 mph (40 km/h).
•
Vehicle is on a downhill grade of insufficient
magnitude (less than approximately 8%), is
on level ground, or is on an uphill grade.
• Vehicle is shifted to PARK.
Disabling HDC
HDC will be deactivated and disabled if any
of the following conditions occur:
• The driver pushes the HDC switch.
• The driveline is shifted out of 4WD Low
Range.
• Driver’s door opens.• The vehicle is driven greater than 25 mph
(40 km/h) (HDC exits immediately.)
Feedback To The Driver:
The instrument cluster has an HDC icon and
the HDC switch has an LED which offer feed-
back to the driver about the state HDC is in.
• The cluster icon and switch lamp will illu-
minate and remain solid when HDC is en-
abled or activated. This is the normal oper-
ating condition for HDC.
• The switch lamp will flash for several sec-
onds then extinguish when the driver
pushes the HDC switch when enable con-
ditions have not been met.
The Hill Descent Switch is located within the
Selec-Terrain knob in the upper right
position.
WARNING!
HDC is only intended to assist the driver in
controlling vehicle speed when descend-
ing hills. The driver must remain attentive
to the driving conditions and is respon-
sible for maintaining a safe vehicle speed.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
The HSA system is designed to mitigate roll
back from a complete stop while on an in-
cline. If the driver releases the brake while
stopped on an incline, HSA will continue to
hold the brake pressure for a short period. If
the driver does not apply the throttle before
this time expires, the system will release
brake pressure and the vehicle will roll down
the hill as normal.
The following conditions must be met in
order for HSA to activate:
• The feature must be enabled.
• The vehicle must be stopped.
• Park brake must be off.
• Driver door must be closed.
• The vehicle must be on a sufficient grade.
• The gear selection must match vehicle up-
hill direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill is in
forward gear; vehicle backing uphill is in
REVERSE gear).

• Modifications or repair of the electrical
system performed incorrectly and with-
out taking into account the technical
characteristics can cause malfunctions
with the risk of fire.
• Halogen lamps contain gas under pres-
sure, in the event of breakage be careful
of the projection of fragments of glass.
• Halogen lamps must be handled by
touching only the metallic part. If the
transparent bulb is in contact with the
fingers, reduces the intensity of the
emitted light and you can also affect the
life of the lamp. In case of accidental
contact, rub the bulb with a cloth damp-
ened with alcohol and allow to dry.

FUSES
WARNING!
• When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of
higher amp rating. Never replace a
blown fuse with metal wires or any other
material. Do not place a fuse inside a
circuit breaker cavity or vice versa. Fail-
ure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or prop-
erty damage.
• Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or disen-
gaged.
• If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
•
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system, trans-
mission system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
