Using smart liftgate
1. Setting
To activate the Smart Liftgate with Auto Open, go to Setup → Vehicle → Door → Smart Liftgate with Auto Open on the infotainment system.
2. Detect and Alert
If you are positioned in the detecting area (20~40 inches [50~100 cm] behind the vehicle) carrying a smart key, the hazard warning lights will blink and chime will sound to alert you the smart key has been detected and the liftgate will open.
