MANUAL LIFTGATE
The liftgate area is only intended for cargo, not passengers. You can open
and close the liftgate from outside the vehicle. The liftgate cannot be
opened from the cargo area control button, only closed.
Note: In the event of a power failure, the latch can be accessed and
released from the inside using the access panel on the liftgate trim.
To open the liftgate, push the
control button located in the top of
the liftgate pull cup handle to
unlatch the liftgate, then pull on the
outside handle to access the cargo
area.
• Do not open the liftgate in a
garage or other enclosed area
with a low ceiling. If the liftgate is
opened, the liftgate could be
damaged against a low ceiling.
• Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause
serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing
carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
WARNING: Make sure that the liftgate door 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 door open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into
the vehicle.
