To open the liftgate using hands-free activation,
use a straight in and out kicking motion under
the vehicle activation zone in the general
location below the liftgate door handle. Do not
move your foot sideways or in a sweeping
motion or the sensors may not detect the
motion. Vehicles Equipped With A Trailer Tow Package
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the Trailer Tow
Package, the hands-free activation zone(s) for
the Power Liftgate will be located on the left and
right side of the receiver. Use a straight kicking
motion under either activation zone to open the
Hands-Free Liftgate.

NOTE:
To open the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a valid
Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
door handle. If a valid Passive Entry key fob is
not within 5 ft (1.5 m), the liftgate will not
respond to any kicks.
NOTE:
The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate
when the transmission is in PARK.
If anything obstructs the Hands-Free Liftgate
while it is opening or closing, the liftgate will
automatically reverse to the closed 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 occurs,
the liftgate must be operated manually.
The power liftgate will release, but not power
open, in temperatures below −12°F
(−24°C). Be sure to remove any buildup of
snow or ice from the liftgate before opening
the liftgate.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended
period of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate func-
tionality. Gas props support the liftgate in the open
position. However, because the gas pressure
drops with temperature, it may be necessary to
assist the props when opening the liftgate in
cold weather.
NOTE:
Allow the power system to open the liftgate.
Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may
activate the liftgate obstacle detection feature
and stop the power operation or reverse its
direction.
CAUTION!
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be
turned on or off in Uconnect Settings. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for
further information. The Hands-Free Liftgate
feature should be turned off during Jacking,
Tire Changing, and Vehicle Service.
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle.
You and your passengers could be injured
by these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed
when you are operating the vehicle.
If you are required to drive with the liftgate
open, make sure that all windows are
closed, and the climate control blower
switch is set at high speed. Do not use the
recirculation mode.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or
cargo damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate
travel path is clear. Make sure the liftgate is
closed and latched before driving away.

Stow ‘n Vac Integrated Vacuum — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an
integrated vacuum system. This vacuum is for
in-vehicle use only and should only be used on
dry materials and on in-vehicle surfaces. It is
located in the rear trim panel behind the sliding
door on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using
your vacuum, basic precautions should be
followed, including the following:
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat -
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously
or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil -
dren, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go
in either ACC mode or engine running (ON)
unless you are using the vacuum system.
Be aware a child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle when the vacuum system is in use.
ALWAYS push ignition button to place igni -
tion in the OFF mode when finished using
the vacuum system.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury or
death:
 Do not use vacuum while vehicle
is in motion or while driving.
Do not vacuum wet surfaces or any liquids.
Do not use to vacuum up anything outside
of the vehicle.

button to place ignition in the OFF posi -tion, remove key fob from the vehicle,
close all of the doors and the liftgate and
lock the vehicle.
Vacuum Troubleshooting
DO NOT use with any opening blocked. If an
object becomes lodged in the hose, attempt
to fully extend the hose in a straight line while
the vacuum motor is running. If this does not
dislodge the object, turn the vacuum OFF and
remove the hose from the vehicle following
the removal instructions below. If the filter is
clogged, follow the emptying debris bin
procedure and lightly tap the filter on the
collection bin to remove any collected debris
from the filter. Both the bin and the filter can
be rinsed with water if needed. To avoid mold
and stale odors, allow both to dry completely
before reinstalling in your vehicle. If the filter
has tears, holes or other damage and needs
to be replaced, please contact an authorized
dealer.
If there are any other issues with your
vacuum, contact an authorized dealer. Your
vacuum has no user serviceable parts. Debris Bin
The debris bin is located behind the lower
access panel behind the third row seat on the
driver’s side.

Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp)
power outlets, and 5 Volt (2.5 Amp) USB power
outlets, that can be used to power cellular
phones, small electronics and other low
powered electrical accessories. The power
outlets can be labeled with either a “key” or a
“battery” symbol to indicate how the outlet is
powered. Power outlets labeled with a “key” are
powered when the ignition is in the ON or ACC
position, while the outlets labeled with a
“battery” are connected directly to the battery
and powered at all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the “battery”
powered outlets should be removed or
turned off when the vehicle is not in use to
protect the battery against discharge. The front power outlet is located at the bottom
of the instrument panel.

12 Volt Front Power Outlet

In addition to the front power outlets, there is
also a power outlet located in the rear cargo
area.
CAUTION!
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object in
the power outlets as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage not covered
by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
