FORD 2013 Edge v.3 - Manual (Page 77)

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.
2. Press the control button located in the top of the liftgate pull-cup
handle.
Note: Allow the power system to open the liftgate after pressing the
control. Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may activate the
system’s obstacle detection feature and stops the power operation.
