MANUAL LIFTGATE
WARNINGS
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a
vehicle. In a crash, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride
in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be
sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a safety belt properly. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury or death. Make sure to close and latch the
liftgate to prevent drawing exhaust
fumes into your vehicle. This will also
prevent passengers and cargo from falling
out. If you must drive with the liftgate open,
keep the vents or windows open so outside
air comes into your vehicle. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury. Note:
Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not hang anything, for example a
bike rack, from the glass or liftgate. This
could damage the liftgate and its
components.

driving. This could damage the liftgate and
its components. Opening the Liftgate

POWER LIFTGATE (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNINGS
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a
vehicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride
in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be
sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a safety belt properly. Make sure to close and latch the
liftgate to prevent drawing exhaust
fumes into your vehicle. This will also
prevent passengers and cargo from falling
out. If you must drive with the liftgate open,
keep the vents or windows open so outside
air comes into your vehicle. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury. Keep keys out of reach of children.
Do not allow children to play near an
open or moving power liftgate.
Note:
Cycling the ignition while the liftgate
is power closing and is near the latch may
cause the liftgate to reverse to full open
position. Make sure that you close the
liftgate before operating or moving the
vehicle, especially in an enclosure, like a
garage or a parking structure. You could
damage the liftgate or its components.
Note: Do not hang anything, for example a
bike rack, from the spoiler, glass or liftgate.
This could damage the liftgate and its
components.
If the vehicle is running, the liftgate will only
operate with the transmission in park.
Three warning tones will sound once as
the liftgate begins to power close. Five
short chimes indicate a problem with the
open or close request, caused by: •
the ignition is on and the transmission
is not in P;
• or the battery voltage is below the
minimum operating voltage;
• or the vehicle speed is at or above 3
mph (5 km/h).
If the liftgate falls to the closed direction
after the liftgate has stopped in the open
position, four short warning chimes
indicate excessive weight on the gate or a
possible gas strut failure. Have the system
checked by an authorized dealer if you still
have the issue after you remove the load.
Opening and Closing the Liftgate WARNING
Make sure all persons are clear of the
power liftgate area before using the
power liftgate control.
Note:
Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not leave the liftgate open while
driving. This could damage the liftgate and
its components.
Note: You can stop the liftgate movement
direction with a second press of the
instrument panel button or the control
button on the liftgate, a second press of the
transmitter button, or by using a kicking
motion with your foot for hands-free
liftgates.

Obstacle Detection
When Closing

liftgate is closing can cause your vehicle to
bounce and activate obstacle detection. To
prevent this, let the power liftgate close
completely before you enter your vehicle.
Before driving off, check the instrument
cluster for a liftgate or door ajar message or
warning indicator. Failure to do this could
result in unintentionally leaving the liftgate
open while driving. When Opening

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM
SecuriLock®
The system helps prevent your vehicle
from starting unless you use a coded key
programmed to your vehicle. Using the
wrong key may prevent your vehicle from
starting. A message may appear in the
information display.

programmed key that operates the driver
door lock and activates the intelligent
access with push button start system, as
well as a remote control. If your programmed transmitters or
standard SecuriLock coded keys

immobilizer keycode and the remote entry
portion of the remote control to your
vehicle
