Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if the power liftgate is blocked by an object or part of the body, the power liftgate will detect the resistance.
-
If the resistance is detected while opening the liftgate, it will stop and move in the opposite direction.
-
If the resistance is detected while closing the liftgate, it will stop and move in the opposite direction.
However, if the resistance is weak such as from an object that is thin or soft, or the liftgate is near the latched position, the automatic stop and reversal may not detect the resistance.
If the automatic reversal feature operates continuously more than twice during opening or closing operation, the power liftgate may stop at that position. At this time, close the liftgate manually and operate the liftgate automatically again.
Never place any object or part of your body in the path of the power liftgate as it is operating. Doing so could result in personal injury.
