Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone
To open or close the liftgate using hands-free
activation, use a straight in and out kicking
motion under the vehicle activation zone in
the general location below the rear license
plate. Do not move your foot sideways or in a
sweeping motion or the sensors may not
detect the motion.
NOTE:
Activation zone is the same for vehicles
equipped with and without trailer tow
package.
When a valid kicking motion is completed,
the liftgate will chime, the hazard lights will
flash and the liftgate will open after approxi -mately one second, or close after approxi
-
mately three seconds. This assumes all
options are enabled in the radio.
NOTE:
Opening or closing the Hands-Free Lift -

within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door handle. If a
valid Passive Entry key fob is not within
5 ft (1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond
to any kicks.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be
turned on or off in Uconnect Settings.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi -

The Hands-Free Liftgate feature can be
activated by any metallic object making a
similar in-and-out motion under the rear
bumper, such as cleaning using a metal
broom.
The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate
when the transmission is in PARK.

WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the

avoid the danger of being hit when oper -
ating the jack or changing the wheel.
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be
crushed. Never put any part of your body
under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you
need to get under a raised vehicle, take
it to a service center where it can be
raised on a lift.
Never start or run the engine while the
vehicle is on a jack.
The jack is designed to be used as a tool
for changing tires only. The jack should
not be used to lift the vehicle for service
purposes. The vehicle should be jacked
on a firm level surface only. Avoid ice or
slippery areas.
