To open with the outside liftgate

If the intelligent access transmitter (if

when you press the liftgate release
button.
2. Press the control button located in the top of the liftgate pull-cup handle.
Note: Allow the power system to open the liftgate after pressing the

obstacle detection feature and stops the power operation.
To close with the rear cargo area control: Press and release
the button located in the rear cargo area.
WARNING: Keep clear of the liftgate when activating the rear

Obstacle Detection
When closing: The liftagte will reverse to full open when it detects an
obstacle. A chime will sound three times as the liftgate begins to reopen.
Remove the obstacle to close the liftgate.
Note: Entering the vehicle while the liftgate is closing can cause the
vehicle to bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, allow
the power liftgate to fully close before entering the vehicle. Before
driving off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate or door ajar
message and/or warning indicator. Driving off without first checking for
the liftgate or door ajar message and/or warning indicator could result in
the liftgate being left open, unintentionally, while you are driving.
When opening: The system will stop and a chime will sound three times
when it detects an obstacle. Remove the obstacle to operate the liftgate.
