Know what kind of control to look for.
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
Open the power liftgate and stop it at the desired position above the halfway-open point.
- 02
Press and hold the liftgate-mounted power-close switch for at least three seconds.
- 03
Release after two warning sounds confirm the stored position.
- 04
Close and reopen the liftgate while watching clearance to verify the limit.
- 05
To restore full opening, open the gate and keep holding the close switch for at least seven seconds until three warning sounds are heard.
Important limits
- A position at or below halfway cannot be stored.
- Keep people and objects clear and watch the liftgate throughout powered movement.
- An incline, strong wind, snow load or a weak/disconnected 12-volt battery can prevent normal automatic operation.
Quick checks.
- ✓If two sounds are not heard, raise the gate farther than halfway and repeat the three-second hold.
- ✓If automatic operation was lost after battery disconnection, fully close the liftgate manually once.
- ✓If a seven-second reset produces two beeps at three seconds, continue holding until the third-beep reset confirmation.
