Driver Controls Care should be exercised in starting the engine before the liftgate is fully closed (latched). If the ignition is cycled during a liftgate power close cycle and the liftgate is 6-10 inches (15-24 cm) from being latched, the liftgate may reverse to the full open position. Verify that the gate is closed before operating or moving the vehicle, especially in an enclosure, like a garage or a parking structure. The liftgate or it components could be damaged in an enclosure, if the liftgate is open. 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 pressing it upward to the maximum open position. To open the liftgate from the instrument panel: Press the button once to open the liftgate, press it again to close. To open the liftgate with the remote entry transmitter: twice within three seconds to fully unlatch and open the Press liftgate. Refer to Remote entry system in the Locks and Security chapter. To open the liftgate with outside liftgate control button (manual actuation): 1. Unlock the liftgate with the remote entry transmitter or power door unlock control. 2. Press the control button located in the top of the liftgate pull cup handle. Note: For the best performance allow the power system to open the liftgate after releasing the control button. Continued upward force after unlatching may activate the obstacle detection feature and stop the power operation. Note: If weight is added to the gate (bike rack, snow, etc.) the gate may automatically start a power close event immediately after a power open. In this mode a unique continuous chime will sound. 126 2010 Navigator (nav) Owners Guide (own2002), 1st Printing USA (fus)
