This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Stop the CX-30, switch vehicle power OFF and check that the liftgate path is clear.
- 02
Press and hold the power-liftgate button on the key for at least one second.
- 03
Release after the hazard lights flash twice and the warning sound begins.
- 04
Watch the liftgate until it finishes opening or closing.
- 05
To stop movement, press a liftgate control; hold the key button again for at least one second to move in the opposite direction.
Important limits
- The key command requires the vehicle to be stopped and vehicle power OFF.
- The jam-safe system does not eliminate the need to keep people, hands and cargo clear.
- The gate may not operate normally on an incline, in strong wind or with snow on it.
Quick checks.
- ✓If a brief press does nothing, hold the liftgate button for the full one second.
- ✓If the gate reverses and stops, clear the detected obstruction or excess load before retrying.
- ✓If battery service disabled powered movement, manually close the liftgate completely once.
