WHEN UNLOCKED
In this mode,
you must unlock the tailgate before
opening it. In addition, the tailgate
will not automatically relock when
you close it.
You can switch between these two
modes as following:
Press and hold the power tailgate
switch on the dashboard.
You can customize the power
tailgate setting not to open without
unlocking the tailgate lock first by
remote transmitter from the outside.
When you customize the setting,
make sure your vehicle is parked
safely, the parking brake is applied,
all doors and the tailgate are fully
closed and locked, and the key is
removed from the ignition switch.
There are two settings you can
choose from:
ANYTIME
The tailgate unlocks
and opens when you press and hold
the tailgate button on the remote
transmitter for 1 second. The
tailgate will automatically relock
when you close it when the doors are
locked.
With this message shown on the
multi-information display, you can
still open or close the tailgate
manually.
If you try to drive off with the
tailgate open, a beeper sounds and a
‘‘DOOR & TAILGATE OPEN’’
message is shown on the multi-
information display.
Keep the tailgate closed at all times
while driving to avoid damaging the
tailgate and to prevent exhaust gas
from getting into the interior. See
on page
.
If there is a problem in the power
tailgate system, you will see a
‘‘CHECK POWER TAILGATE’’
message on the multi-information
display. Have the system checked by
your dealer.
