2013 Lincoln MKX Owner Manual Printing 3 - Page 75

74 Locks Note: In case of operation in extreme cold -40°F (-40°C), or on extreme inclines, manual operation of the liftgate is suggested. You can enable or disable the power liftgate using the information display. The remote control and instrument panel button will still operate the liftgate regardless of the setting. Opening and Closing the Power Liftgate Note: The liftgate movement direction can be reversed with a second press of the instrument panel, or the control button on the liftgate, or a second double press of the transmitter button. The liftgate will only operate with the vehicle in P. 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 on and the transmission is not in P; • or the battery voltage is below the minimum operating voltage; • or the vehicle speed is at or above 3 mph (5 km/h). If the liftgate reverses and starts to close after an open request, a fast continuous chime indicates excessive load on the gate or a possible strut failure. See your authorized dealer if you still have a fast chime after the load is removed. To open or close from the instrument panel: Press the instrument panel button. To open or close with the remote control: Press the remote control button twice within three seconds. To open with the outside liftgate control button: 1. Unlock the liftgate with the remote control or power door unlock control. If the intelligent access transmitter (if equipped) is within 3 feet (1 meter) of the liftgate, the liftgate will unlock when you press the liftgate release button. 2013 MKX (mkx) Owners Guide gf, 3rd Printing USA (fus)
