To operate the power liftgate manually in the open
direction, pull the liftgate handle once to initiate a power
cycle and then pull the handle a second time to put
liftgate into manual mode.

When the LIFTGATE button on the RKE transmitter is
pressed two times, the turn signals will flash twice to
signal that the liftgate is opening or closing (if Flash
Lamps with Lock is enabled in the EVIC) and the liftgate
chime will be audible. For further information, refer to

NOTE:

• In the event of a power malfunction to the liftgate, an

emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open
the liftgate. The emergency liftgate latch release can be
accessed through a snap-in cover located on the lift-
gate trim panel.

• If liftgate is left open for an extended period of time,

the liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset
power liftgate functionality.

WARNING!

During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.

NOTE:
• The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the

vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 mph
(0 km/h).

• The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures

below −22°F (−30°C) or temperatures above 150°F
(65°C). Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pressing any of the power
liftgate switches.
