WARNING:To avoid exhaust fumes, do not use remote start if
your vehicle is parked indoors or areas that are not well
ventilated.
Note: Do not use remote start if your vehicle is low on fuel.

Check your local and state or provincial laws for specific requirements
regarding remote start systems.

Obstacle Detection
When closing:The liftgate reverses to full open when it detects an
obstacle. A chime sounds three times as the liftgate begins to reopen.
Remove the obstacle to close the liftgate.
Note: Entering your vehicle while the 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: The system stops when it detects an obstacle and a
tone sounds three times. Remove the obstacle to operate the liftgate.

The liftgate may not operate properly and you may need to reset it if any
of the following conditions occur:
• A low voltage or dead battery.

• The liftgate is manually closed and left ajar (unlatched).
To reset the power liftgate:
1.
Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds, and then reconnect the battery.

3. Power open the liftgate by using the remote control or the instrument panel button.

AUTOLAMPS
WARNING:The daytime running lamps system does not activate
the rear lamps and may not provide adequate lighting during low
visibility driving conditions. Also, the autolamps switch position may not
activate the headlamps in all low visibility conditions, such as daytime
fog. Always ensure that your headlamps are switched to auto or on, as
appropriate, during all low visibility conditions. Failure to do so may
result in a collision.
When the lighting control is in the autolamps position, the headlamps
will automatically turn on in low light situations or when wipers are
activated.
The headlamps remain on for a period of time after you switch the
ignition off. Use the information display controls to adjust the period of
time that the headlamps remain on. Note:If your vehicle is equipped with autolamps,
it will have the windshield wiper activated
headlamps. The windshield wiper activated
headlamps turn on within 10 seconds when you
switch the windshield wipers on and the lighting
control switch is in the autolamps position. They
will turn off approximately 60 seconds after you
switch the windshield wipers off.
The headlamps will not turn on by wiper
activation:
• During a single wipe.
• When the wipers are on to clear washer fluid during a wash condition.
• If the wipers are in intermittent mode.
Note: If you have autolamps and autowipers switched on, the low beam
headlamps will turn on automatically when the windshield wipers operate
continuously.
