discharged, do not leave the power

long time.
• Do not modify or repair any part
of the power liftgate by yourself.
This must be done by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
• When jacking up the vehicle to
change a tire or repair the vehicle, do
not operate the power liftgate. This
could cause the power liftgate to
operate improperly.
• In cold and wet climates, the power
liftgate may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.

Automatic reverse
OJK051029NOJK051029N
During power opening or closing if the
power liftgate senses any obstacle, the
power liftgate will stop and move in the
opposite direction.
The auto reverse function may not work
if objects are too soft or thin, or if the
liftgate is almost fully closed near the
latched position.
Caution should be taken to prevent any
objects from obstructing the liftgate
opening.
If the automatic reverse feature operates
more than two times while attempting
to open or close the liftgate, the power
liftgate may stop at that position. If
this occurs, carefully close the liftgate
manually, and then try to operate the
power liftgate automatically again.
WARNING
Never intentionally place any object
or part of your body in the path of
the power liftgate to make sure the
automatic reverse function operates.

liftgate before you operate the power
liftgate. Additional weight may damage
the operation of the system.
Non-operating conditions of the
power liftgate

when the vehicle is in motion.
The chime will sound if you drive with
the liftgate opened. Stop your vehicle
immediately at a safe place and check
if your liftgate is opened.
• Operating the power liftgate more
than 5 times continuously could
cause damage to the operating motor.
If this occurs, the power liftgate
system enters into thermal protection
mode to prevent the motor from
overheating. In thermal protection
mode, the power liftgate will not
operate. If any of the power liftgate
buttons are pressed to try to open the
liftgate, the chime will sound 3 times
but the liftgate will remain closed.
Allow the power liftgate system
to cool for about 1 minute before
operating the system again.
