CAUTIONlThe safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the electric tailgate is fully closed to al- low it to close completely. Therefore be es-
pecially careful not to trap a hand or finger
at this time.
l The safety mechanism is deactivated when
the electric tailgate is closed manually. Therefore be especially careful not to trap ahand or finger at this time.
l If the safety mechanism is repeatedly operat-
ed, the tailgate could be switched to manual operation. Be careful at this time, as the
electric tailgate could open or close sudden-
ly, depending on its position.
Once the electric tailgate is completely open or closed, normal automatic operation is
again possible.NOTEl If the environment or usage conditions sub-
ject the sensors to the same kind of force as
that of trapping a person or object, the safety mechanism could be activated.
l Do not damage the sensors when loading or
unloading luggage, or when cleaning therear window. Doing so could prevent the tailgate from closing automatically.Drop prevention mechanism
After the electric tailgate is opened automati-
cally, if it is detected that the tailgate is drop- ping due to factors such as accumulated
snow, the electric tailgate is closed automati- cally.
A warning buzzer sounds continuously while
the drop prevention mechanism operates.
NOTEl If snow has accumulated on the electric tail-
gate, remove it before operation.
l Do not install accessories other than
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE parts
on the electric tailgate. Some accessories could be too heavy, causing the drop preven-
tion mechanism to operate.
l The drop prevention mechanism could be
activated if manual operation is attempted immediately after the electric tailgate is
completely opened automatically.Sudden operation prevention
mechanism
If the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is started
while the electric tailgate is operating auto-
matically, it may switch to manual operation due to insufficient auxiliary battery voltage,
making the electric tailgate stop intermittent- ly while it moves. This is to stop the electric
tailgate from operating suddenly. When the tailgate is completely closed or opened, auto-
matic operation is again possible after ap-
proximately 10 seconds.
CAUTIONl The safety mechanism is deactivated while
the sudden operation prevention mechanism is operating. Therefore be especially careful
not to trap a hand or finger at this time.Manual operation
