LIFTGATE RELEASE
WARNING
• Always be sure the liftgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.
• Do not drive with the liftgate open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. For additional
information, see “Exhaust gas (carbon
monoxide)” (P. 5-4).
• To avoid personal injury, do not attempt
to activate the power liftgate if one or
both of the liftgate struts are removed.
CAUTION
• If the power liftgate does not stay open
or if the liftgate unexpectedly closes at
any time while a continuous warning
chime sounds, do not operate the lift-
gate. There may be a pressure loss in one
or both of the liftgate struts. It is recom-
mended that you have the liftgate in-
spected. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
• Do not activate the power liftgate if one
or both of the liftgate struts are re-
moved. Damage to the liftgate or power
liftgate mechanisms may occur.
• Keep the power liftgate main switch (if
so equipped) in the OFF position when
washing or working around the back of
the vehicle (with Intelligent Key) to pre-
vent inadvertent opening/closing.

1. Remove the cover
OAon the inside of the
