Lincoln 2010 MKX - Manual (Page 82)

Resetting the power liftgate:
The power liftgate may not operate properly and may need to be reset if
any of these conditions occur:
• a low voltage or dead battery
• disconnected battery
• the liftgate is manually closed and left ajar (unlatched)
To reset the power liftgate:
1. Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds then, reconnect the battery.
2. Manually close and fully latch the liftgate.
3. Power open the liftgate by using the integrated keyhead transmitter,
or the instrument panel control button.
Note: If the power liftgate system is turned off in the message center,
the system cannot be activated with the outside release handle or rear
cargo area control button. The system will need to be turned on to
resume operation with the outside release handle or rear cargo area
control button. The power liftgate is still operational through the use of
the remote entry transmitter and instrument panel button when the
power liftgate is turned off in the message center.
MANUAL LIFTGATE OPERATION
The liftgate cargo area is only intended for cargo, not for passengers.
To open the liftgate, press the
button located in the top of the
liftgate pull cup handle to unlatch
the liftgate, then pull on the handle.
• Exercise care when opening or
closing the liftgate in a garage or
other enclosed area. The liftgate
could be damaged against a
garage door, low ceiling or wall.
• Do not hang anything (bike rack,
etc.) from the spoiler/glass or liftgate. Doing so could cause serious
damage to the liftgate and its components.
• Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause
serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing
carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
