Obstacle Detection
Features
If the liftgate encounters an
obstacle during a power open
or close cycle, the liftgate will
automatically reverse direction
and move a short distance
away from the obstacle. After
removing the obstruction, the
power liftgate operation can
be used again. If the liftgate
encounters multiple obstacles
on the same power cycle, the
power function will deactivate.
After removing the
obstructions, manually close
the liftgate. This will allow
normal power operation
functions to resume.
If the vehicle is locked while
the liftgate is closing, and an
obstacle is encountered that
prevents the liftgate from
completely closing, the horn
will sound as an alert that the
liftgate did not close.
Setting the 3/4 Mode
To change the position the
liftgate stops at when
opening:1. Select MAX or 3/4 mode and power open the
liftgate.
2. Stop the liftgate movement at the desired
height by pressing any
liftgate button. Manually

if needed.
3. Press and hold
lon the
outside of the liftgate until
the turn signals flash and a
beep sounds. This
indicates the setting has
been recorded.
The liftgate cannot be set
below a minimum
programmable height. If there
is no light flash or sound, then
the height adjustment may be
too low.
Manual Operation
Select OFF to manually
operate the liftgate.
Caution
Attempting to move the
liftgate too quickly and with
excessive force may result
in damage to the vehicle.

Identifying Driver Number
The vehicle identifies the
current driver by their remote
key number 1–8. The current
remote key number may be
identified by Driver
Information Center (DIC)
welcome message, “You are
driver x for memory recalls.”
This message is displayed the
first few times the vehicle is
turned on when a different
remote key is used. For Seat
Entry Memory to work
properly, save positions to the
1 or 2 memory button
matching the driver number of
this welcome message. To aid in identifying remote key IDs, it
is recommended to only carry
one remote key when entering
the vehicle. Perform the
following if the welcome
message is not displayed:
1. Move all keys and remote keys away from the
vehicle.
2. Start the vehicle with another remote key. A DIC
welcome message should
display indicating the
driver number of the other
remote key. Turn the
vehicle off and remove the
other key or remote key
from the vehicle.
3. Start the vehicle with the initial key or remote key.
The DIC welcome message
should display the driver
number of the initial
remote key.
Saving Seating Positions
Read these instructions
completely before saving
memory positions. To save preferred driving
positions to 1 and 2:
1. Turn the vehicle on or to accessory mode. A DIC
welcome message may
indicate the driver number
of the current remote key.
See “Identifying Driver
Number” previously in this
section.
2. Adjust all available memory features to the desired
driving position.
3. Press and release SET; a beep will sound.
4. Immediately upon releasing SET, press and hold
memory button 1 or
2 matching the current
Driver’s remote key
number until two beeps
sound. If too much time
passes between releasing
SET and pressing 1 or 2,
the two beeps will not
sound indicating memory
position were not saved.
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to
try again.

frontal impact. Roof-rail
airbags are not designed to
inflate in rear impacts. Both
roof-rail airbags may inflate
when either side of the vehicle
is struck or if the sensing
system predicts that the
vehicle is about to roll over on
its side, or in a severe frontal
impact.
In any particular crash, no one
can say whether an airbag
should have inflated simply
because of the vehicle
damage or repair costs.
What Makes an
Airbag Inflate?
In a deployment event, the
sensing system sends an
electrical signal triggering a
release of gas from the
inflator. Gas from the inflator
fills the airbag causing the bag
to break out of the cover. The
inflator, the airbag, and related
hardware are all part of the
airbag module.For airbag locations, see
Where Are the Airbags?
073.
How Does an Airbag
Restrain?
In moderate to severe frontal
or near frontal collisions, even
belted occupants can contact
the steering wheel or the
instrument panel. In moderate
to severe side collisions, even
belted occupants can contact
the inside of the vehicle.
Airbags supplement the
protection provided by seat
belts by distributing the force
of the impact more evenly
over the occupant's body.
Rollover capable roof-rail
airbags are designed to help
contain the head and chest of
occupants in the outboard
seating positions in the first,
second, and third rows. The
rollover capable roof-rail
airbags are designed to help
reduce the risk of full or partial ejection in rollover events,
although no system can
prevent all such ejections.
But airbags would not help in
many types of collisions,
primarily because the
occupant's motion is not
toward those airbags. See
When Should an Airbag
Inflate?
075.
Airbags should never be
regarded as anything more
than a supplement to seat
belts.
What Will You See
after an Airbag
Inflates?
After frontal, knee, and
seat-mounted side impact
airbags inflate, they quickly
deflate, so quickly that some
people may not even realize
the airbags inflated. Roof-rail
airbags may still be at least
partially inflated for some time
after they inflate. Some
components of the airbag

Charging System
Light
The charging system light
comes on briefly when the
ignition is turned on, but the
engine is not running, as a
check to show the light is
working. It should go out when
the engine is started.
If the light stays on, or comes
on while driving, there may be
a problem with the electrical charging system. Have it
checked by your dealer.
Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery.
When this light comes on, or is
flashing, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) also displays a
message.
If a short distance must be
driven with the light on, be
sure to turn off all
accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner. Find a safe
place to stop the vehicle.
Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (Check Engine
Light)
This light is part of the
vehicle’s emission control
on-board diagnostic system.
If this light is on while the
engine is running, a
malfunction has been
detected and the vehicle may
require service. The light
should come on to show that it
is working when the ignition is
in Service Mode. See Ignition
Positions
0257.
Malfunctions are often
indicated by the system
before any problem is
noticeable. Being aware of the
light and seeking service
promptly when it comes on
may prevent damage.
Caution
If the vehicle is driven
continually with this light on,
the emission control system
may not work as well, the
fuel economy may be lower,
and the vehicle may not run
smoothly. This could lead to
costly repairs that might not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
