Automatic reversal  
During power liftgate operation if the power liftgate senses any obstacle, the liftgate  
stops or fully opens. The automatic reverse feature may not operate properly, or it may  
operate unexpectedly under the following circumstances:  
• The automatic reverse feature may not detect the resistance if the detected resistance  
is below a certain level, or if the liftgate is almost fully closed near the latched position.  
• The automatic reverse feature may operate if a strong impact is applied with no  
obstructions placed.  
WARNING  
Never deliberately place any object or use your body part to test the automatic reverse  
feature.  
Information  
The power liftgate may stop operating if the automatic reverse feature operates more  
than two times while attempting to open or close the liftgate. If this occurs, carefully  
open or close the liftgate manually, and then after 30 seconds try to operate the power  
liftgate automatically again.
