MANUAL LIFTGATE (IF EQUIPPED)

The liftgate area is only intended for cargo, not passengers. You can open
and close the liftgate from outside the vehicle. The liftgate cannot be
opened from the cargo area control button, only closed.

Note: In the event of a power failure, the latch can be accessed and
released from the inside using the access panel on the liftgate trim.

To open the liftgate, press the
control button located on the inside
of the liftgate handle to unlatch the
liftgate, then pull on the handle to
access the cargo area.
• Do not open the liftgate or

liftgate glass in a garage or other
enclosed area with a low ceiling.
If the liftgate glass is raised and
the liftgate is also opened, both
liftgate and glass could be
damaged against a low ceiling.

• Do not leave the liftgate or liftgate glass 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.

WARNING: Make sure the liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. If you must drive with

the liftgate open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the
vehicle.

CARGO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The cargo management system
consists of a storage compartment
located in the floor of the rear cargo
area.

1. To open, lift up on the handle and
cover.

2. To close, lower the cover and
press down on the handle until the
latch clicks.
