vated while the cinching motor is en-
gaged, the cinching motor will disen-
gage and release the latch.

and return to the full open or full close po-
sition. If a second obstacle is detected, the
lif tgate motion will stop and the lif tgate will
enter manual mode.
A pinch strip is mounted on each side of
the lif tgate. If an obstacle is detected by a
pinch strip during power close, the lif tgate
will reverse direction and return to the full
open position. NOTE:
If the pinch strip is damaged or removed,
the power close function will not oper-
ate.
WARNING
There are some small distances imme-
diately before the closed position which
cannot be detected. Make sure that all
passengers have their hands, etc., in-
side the vehicle before closing the
lif tgate.
Manual Mode:
If power operation is not available, the lif t-
gate may be operated manually. Power op-
eration may not be available under the fol-

To operate, the Intelligent Key must be
within 31.5 in (80 cm) of the lif tgate.
NOTE:
Tow hitches are available as an acces-
sory for this vehicle. If a tow hitch is in-
stalled, the lif tgate electronic control
unit (ECU) needs to be replaced with an
ECU programmed with towing logic for
the Motion-Activated Lif tgate to func-
tion properly.
Proper operation technique
∙ While at the rear of the vehicle, begin making a quick forward kicking motion.
∙ Raise your foot straight under the cen- ter of the rear bumper then immedi-
ately return your foot to the ground in a
continuous motion.
∙ The kicking motion should be straight, smooth and consistent.
∙ Af ter your kick motion is complete, step back and allow the lif tgate to
open/close. ∙ Three beeps will sound and the lif tgate
will begin moving within two seconds
af ter the kick.
CAUTION
Before performing the kicking motion,
steady your stance to prevent any loss
of balance. Also, while making the kick-
ing motion, take caution around hot ex-
haust system parts. Otherwise, there
may be danger of injury.

position: ∙ When the ignition switch is turned to ON while the shif t lever is in the P (Park)
position. The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through “Vehicle Settings” in the
vehicle information display by performing
the following:
∙ Switch the “Exit Seat Slide” from ON to OFF. For additional information, refer to
“Vehicle Settings” in the “Instruments
and controls” section of this manual.

tioner is operating.
∙
When the switch for the driver’s seat and
steering column is pushed while the au-
tomatic drive positioner is operating.
∙ When the seat has already been moved to the memorized position.
∙ When no seat position is stored in the memory switch.
∙ When the shif t lever is moved from P (Park) to any other position.
