2014 Cadillac SRX Owner Manual - Page 44

2-16 Keys, Doors, and Windows If you do not receive the audible and visual feedback when setting the intermediate stop position, you are attempting to set the height below the 3/4 open height minimum (approximately 1.52 m or 5 ft). The liftgate cannot be set below that minimum and the new setting will not be recorded. To open the liftgate, press the touch pad on the handle on the outside of the liftgate, and lift the gate open. To close the liftgate, use the pull cup to lower the liftgate and close. With the power liftgate disabled, the liftgate electric latch will still power latch once contact is made with the striker. Always close the liftgate before driving. If the RKE button is pressed while power operation is disabled, the turn signals flash and the liftgate will not move. The liftgate has an electric latch. If the battery is disconnected or has low voltage, the liftgate will not open. The liftgate will resume operation when the battery is reconnected and charged. Setting the Power Liftgate 3/4 Mode To change the liftgate stop position: 1. Turn the liftgate switch to the MAX or 3/4 mode position and power open the liftgate. 2. Stop the liftgate movement at the desired height by pressing any liftgate switch. Manually adjust the liftgate position if required. 3. Press and hold the button on the liftgate next to the latch until the turn signals flash and a beep sounds to indicate that the new setting is recorded. When power opened with the 3/4 mode selected, the liftgate stops at the new set position. Manual Operation of Power Liftgate To change the liftgate to manual operation, turn the mode switch to the OFF position. With the power liftgate disabled and all of the doors unlocked, the liftgate can be manually opened and closed. The effort required to operate a power liftgate is greater than the effort required to operate a non-power liftgate.
