Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if
the power liftgate (power tailgate) is
blocked by an object or part of the
body, the power liftgate (power tail-
gate) will detect the resistance.
If the resistance is detected while
opening the liftgate (tailgate), it will
stop and move in the opposite
direction.
If the resistance is detected while closing the liftgate (tailgate), it will
stop and move in the opposite
direction. However, if the resistance is weak
such as from an object that is thin or
soft, or the liftgate (tailgate) is near
the latched position, the automatic
stop and reversal may not detect the
resistance.
If the automatic reversal feature
operates continuously more than
twice during opening or closing
operation, the power liftgate (power
tailgate) may stop at that position. At
this time, close the liftgate (tailgate)
manually and operate the liftgate
(tailgate) automatically again.
CAUTION
Do not put heavy items on the
power liftgate (power tailgate)before you operate the power lift-gate (power tailgate). Additionalweight on liftgate (tailgate) couldcause damages to the system.
WARNING
Never intentionally place any
object or part of your body in
the path of the power liftgate
(power tailgate) to make sure
the automatic reversal oper-
ates.

WARNING - Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can cover your clothes or
skin and thus subject you to
the risk of fire and burns.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap
is venting fuel or if you hear a
hissing sound, wait until the
condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Do not "top off" after the noz- zle automatically shuts off
when refueling.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.WARNING - Refueling
dangers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines
carefully. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in severe
personal injury, severe burns or
death by fire or explosion.
Read and follow all warnings posted at the gas station facility.
Before refueling, note the location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station facility.
Before touching the fuel noz- zle, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touch-
ing another metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicleonce you have begun refuel-
ing since you can generate
static electricity by touching,
rubbing or sliding against any
item or fabric (polyester, satin,
nylon, etc.) capable of produc-
ing static electricity. Static
electricity discharge can
ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate poten-
tially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle or other gasoline source.
