Note: If the child safety locks are on and

you pull the interior handle, you will only  
turn off the emergency locking, not the child  
safety lock. You can only open the doors  
using the external door handle.  
WARNINGS  
Make sure all passengers are clear  
of the liftgate area before using the  
power liftgate control.  
Note: If the doors have been unlocked using  
this method, the doors must be locked  
individually until the central locking function  
has been repaired.  
Close the liftgate properly to prevent  
exhaust fumes from entering your  
vehicle. This will prevent passengers  
and cargo from falling out. If you must drive  
with the liftgate open, keep the vents open  
so outside air can enter your vehicle.

using the key in the position shown.  
Press twice within three seconds  
to open or close the liftgate, or

Note: Be careful when opening or closing  
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed  
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.

WARNINGS  
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a  
cargo area, inside or outside of a  
vehicle. In a crash, people riding in  
these areas are more likely to be seriously  
injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride  
in any area of your vehicle that is not  
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be  
sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat  
and using a safety belt properly. Failure to  
follow this warning could result in serious  
personal injury or death.  
Make sure to close and latch the  
liftgate to prevent drawing exhaust  
fumes into your vehicle. This will also  
prevent passengers and cargo from falling  
out. If you must drive with the liftgate open,  
keep the vents or windows open so outside  
air comes into your vehicle. Failure to  
follow this warning could result in serious  
personal injury.  
Press the button located in the top of the  
liftgate pull cup handle to unlatch the  
liftgate, and then pull on the outside  
handle.  
With the Remote Control  
Press the button twice within  
three seconds.  
Note: Be careful when opening or closing  
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed  
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.  
Closing the Liftgate  
Note: Do not hang anything, for example a  
bike rack, from the glass or liftgate. This  
could damage the liftgate and its  
components.  
Note: Do not leave the liftgate open while  
driving. This could damage the liftgate and  
its components.  
A handle is located inside the liftgate to  
help with closing.
