Power liftgate lock button
Press the liftgate lock button located
inside the liftgate while carrying the
smart key to close and lock the power
liftgate. The liftgate will open and close
with the warning sound.
While the liftgate is closing, press the
button to stop liftgate operation. Press
the button again to restart operation.
WARNING
Always keep the liftgate completely
closed while the vehicle is in motion. If
it is left open or ajar, poisonous exhaust
gases containing carbon monoxide
(CO) may enter the vehicle and serious
illness or death may result.
NOTICE
• The power liftgate can be operated
when the engine is not running.
However, power liftgate operation
consumes a large amount of electric
power. To prevent the battery from
being discharged, do not operate it
excessively (e.g. more than 5 times
repeatedly).
• To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the power
liftgate in the open position for a
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.

• Be sure to use the jack provided with the vehicle.
• ALWAYS place the jack on the designated jacking positions on the vehicle and NEVER on the bumpers or any other part of the vehicle for jacking support.
• Do not start or run the engine while the vehicle is on the jack.
• Do not allow anyone to remain in the vehicle while it is on the jack.
• Keep children away from the road and the vehicle.
