23_RUP_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 84

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE85
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.

Hands-Free Liftgate Trailer Tow Activation Zones

When a valid kicking motion is completed, the liftgate will
chime, the hazard lights will flash and the liftgate will open
after approximately one second. This assumes all options
are enabled in the Uconnect system.
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 suffi -
cient resistance.
 There are pinch sensors attached to the side of the lift -
gate opening. Light pressure anywhere along these
strips will cause the liftgate to return to the open posi -
tion.

 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 functionality.
 The Hands-Free Liftgate only works to open the liftgate. 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. The Hands-Free Liftgate feature
should be turned off during jacking, tire changing, and
vehicle service
Úpage 157.
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 unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously 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 children, and do not leave
the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in either the ACC
position, 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 ignition in the OFF posi -
tion 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.
 Do not vacuum any flammable liquids,
such as gasoline, or use around explosive
vapors. Vapors from flammable liquids may
form an explosive mixture with air and can
be ignited by heat, sparks, or flames. Vapors
may travel to a source of ignition and explode.
 Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking,
such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes/embers.
 Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near children.
 Do not leave the vacuum running while unattended.
 Use only as described in this manual. Use only
attachments provided with your vehicle.
 Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with
any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and
anything that may reduce air flow.

serious injury or death. Follow these precautions to
prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
 Do not inhale exhaust gases.
 Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or
confined area. Always position vehicle outdoors and
fully open all side windows before using vacuum
system with the engine running.
Guard against carbon monoxide with proper mainte -
nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every
time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal condi -
tions repaired promptly.
