Press any liftgate button, the touch
pad, or
bon the RKE transmitter
while the liftgate is moving to stop it.
Pressing any liftgate button or
pressing
btwice quickly on the RKE
transmitter again restarts the
operation in the reverse direction.
Pressing the touch pad on the liftgate
handle will restart the motion, but
only in the opening direction.
Caution
Manually forcing the liftgate to
open or close during a power cycle
can damage the vehicle. Allow the
power cycle to complete.
The power liftgate may be temporarily
disabled under extreme low
temperatures, or after repeated power
cycling over a short period of time.
If this occurs, the liftgate can still be
operated manually.
If the vehicle is shifted out of P (Park)
while the power function is in
progress, the liftgate will continue to
completion. If the vehicle is accelerated before the liftgate has
completed moving, the liftgate may
stop or reverse direction. Check for
Driver Information Center (DIC)
messages and make sure the liftgate is
closed and latched before driving.
Falling Liftgate Detection
If the power liftgate automatically
closes after a power opening cycle, it
indicates that the system is reacting
to excess weight on the liftgate or a
possible support strut failure.
A repetitive chime will sound while
the falling liftgate detection feature is
operating. Remove any excess weight.
If the liftgate continues to
automatically close after opening, see
your dealer for service before using
the power liftgate.
Interfering with the power liftgate
motion or manually closing the
liftgate too quickly after power
opening may resemble a support strut
failure. This could also activate the
falling liftgate detection feature. Allow
the liftgate to complete its operation
and wait a few seconds before
manually closing the liftgate.
Obstacle Detection Features
If the liftgate encounters an obstacle
during a power open or close cycle,
the liftgate will automatically reverse
direction and move a short distance
away from the obstacle. After
removing the obstruction, the power
liftgate operation can be used again.
If the liftgate encounters multiple
obstacles on the same power cycle,
the power function will deactivate.
After removing the obstructions,
manually close the liftgate. This will
allow normal power operation
functions to resume.
If the vehicle is locked while the
liftgate is closing, and an obstacle is
encountered that prevents the liftgate
from completely closing, the horn will
sound as an alert that the liftgate did
not close.
Pinch sensors are on the side edges of
the liftgate. If an object is caught
between the liftgate and the vehicle
and presses against a sensor, the
liftgate will reverse direction and open
fully. The liftgate will remain open
until it is activated again or closed
manually.

.This feature may be temporarily
disabled under some conditions.
If the liftgate does not respond to
the kick, open or close the liftgate
by another method or start the
vehicle. The feature will be
re-enabled.
When closing the liftgate using this
feature, there will be a short delay.
The taillamps will flash and a chime
will sound. Step away from the liftgate
before it starts moving.
Projected Logo
If equipped, a vehicle logo will be
projected for one minute onto the
ground near the rear bumper when an
RKE transmitter is detected within
approximately 2 m (6 ft) from the rear
bumper. The projected logo may not
be visible under brighter daytime
conditions.
1. 1 m (3 ft) Hands-Free Operation Detection Zone
2. 2 m (6 ft) Projected Logo Detection Zone
The projected logo shows where to
kick toward the rear bumper.
The projected logo will not be
restarted using the same RKE
transmitter unless it has been out of
range for longer than 20 seconds. If an RKE transmitter is again
detected within approximately 2 m
(6 ft) of the liftgate, or another kick
has been detected, the one-minute
timer will be reset.
The projected logo will not work
under these conditions:
.
The vehicle battery is low.
. The transmission is not in
P (Park).
. Hands Free Liftgate/Trunk Control
is set to Off in vehicle
personalization. See Vehicle
Personalization 0135.
. Power liftgate is turned off.
. The vehicle remains parked for
72 hours or more, with no RKE
transmitter use or Keyless Access
operation. To re-enable, press any
button on the RKE transmitter or
open and close a vehicle door.
