closed before operating or moving the vehicle, especially in an enclosure,
like a garage or a parking structure. The liftgate or it components could
be damaged in an enclosure, if the liftgate is open.

When power operating the liftgate at temperatures below 32° F (0° C),
the liftgate may stop about 5 in. (13 cm) from the full open position. The
liftgate can be fully opened by pushing it upward to the maximum open
position.

To open the liftgate from the
instrument panel:

Press the button once to open the
liftgate, press it again to close.

To open the liftgate with the remote entry transmitter:

Refer to Remote entry system in the Locks and Security chapter.

To open the liftgate with outside
liftgate control button (manual
actuation):

1. Unlock the liftgate with the
remote entry transmitter or power
door unlock control.

2. Press the control button located
on the inside of the liftgate handle.

Note: For the best performance
allow the power system to open the
liftgate after releasing the control button. Continued upward force after
unlatching may activate the obstacle detection feature and stop the
power operation.

Note: If weight is added to the gate (bike rack, snow, etc.) the gate may
automatically start a power close event immediately after a power open.
In this mode a unique continuous chime will sound.
