Press the touch pad located in the handle of the liftgate, above the license plate, and lift up to open. Do not press the touch pad while closing the liftgate. This will cause the liftgate to be unlatched. Always close the liftgate before driving. On vehicles with a power liftgate, the switch is on the driver door. The vehicle must be in P (Park) to use the power feature. The taillamps flash when the power liftgate moves. 2-15 Power Liftgate { WARNING You or others could be injured if caught in the path of the power liftgate. Make sure there is no one in the way of the liftgate as it is opening and closing. Choose the power liftgate mode by turning the dial on the switch until the indicator lines up with the desired position. The three modes are: MAX: The liftgate opens to the full open height. 3/4: The liftgate opens to a reduced height that can be set by the vehicle operator in a range of approximately three￿quarters open to full open. Use this setting to prevent the liftgate from opening into overhead obstructions such as a garage door or roof mounted cargo during power operation. The liftgate can still be manually opened all the way.
