E138629 WARNINGS Make sure all persons are clear of the liftgate area before using power liftgate control. Make sure the liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also prevent passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the liftgate open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the vehicle. Note: Be careful when opening or closing the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed area to avoid damaging the liftgate. Press twice within three seconds to open or close the liftgate, or E138630 to reverse the movement. See Power Liftgate (page 57). 54
