Driver Controls POWER LIFTGATE (PLG) (IF EQUIPPED) You can power open or close the liftgate with the following controls. • instrument panel control button • integrated keyhead transmitter button • outside liftgate control button • control button in the rear cargo area Opening and Closing the power liftgate: WARNING: Make sure all persons are clear of the power liftgate area before using the power liftgate control. Keep keys out of reach of children. Do not allow children to play near an open or moving power liftgate. The liftgate will only operate with the vehicle in P (Park). When the liftgate is being power closed, a chime will sound three times as the liftgate begins to power close. A single chime indicates a problem with the close request, caused by: • the ignition is in Run and the transmission is not in Park • or the Battery Voltage is below the minimum operating voltage • or the vehicle speed is at or above 3 mph (5 kph) A fast continuous chime during power closing indicates there is an excessive load on the liftgate (snow, bike rack, etc.) or a possible strut malfunction. If any excessive load is removed and you still have a faster chime, have the system serviced immediately by your authorized dealer. Do not attempt to manually force the liftgate to travel faster than the power system will permit. This will activate the obstacle detection feature. Exercise care, when power opening or closing the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed area with a low ceiling or close to a wall/garage door. The liftgate could be damaged from the contact. Disable the power feature and operate the liftgate manually if necessary. When power operating the liftgate at temperatures below 32° F (0° C), the liftgate may stop about 5 inches (12.7 cm) from the full open position. The liftgate can be fully opened by pushing it upward to the maximum open position. 103 2007 MKX (mkx) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
