• If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions

within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop and must be opened or closed manually.

WARNING!

Driving with the liftgate open can allow poison-

ous 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.

Gas props support the liftgate in the open position.
However, because the gas pressure drops with tempera-
ture, it may be necessary to assist the props when
opening the liftgate in cold weather.
