with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped)
in certain open or partially open positions. This is a
normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the
buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, open
the front and rear windows together to minimize
the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the
sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.

HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED

Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone

To open or close 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 rear license plate. The activation
zone is about 1.8 ft (0.5 m) from side to side. Do not move your foot sideways or in a sweeping motion or
the sensors may not detect the motion.

NOTE:Activation zone is the same for vehicles equipped
with or without a trailer tow package.
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, or close after approximately three
seconds. These settings can be enabled or
disabled through Uconnect Settings Ú page 165.
NOTE:
Opening or closing 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 lift -
gate will not respond to any kicks.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned
on or off through the Uconnect system
Ú page 165.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be
turned off during jacking, tire changing, manual
car wash, and vehicle service.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature can be acti -
vated by any metallic object making a similar
in-and-out motion under the rear fascia/
bumper, such as cleaning using a metal broom.
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/open posi -
tion, 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 (approximately one hour), the liftgate
may need to be closed manually to reset power
liftgate functionality.
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.
