Important limits

  • A position at or below halfway open cannot be stored.
  • Keep people and objects clear and watch the liftgate throughout powered movement.
  • Snow, strong wind, an incline or a weak battery can prevent normal powered operation.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If the height is not saved, move the liftgate above halfway and repeat the three-second hold.
  • ✓If the liftgate lost automatic operation after battery service, close it fully by hand once to restore the function.
  • ✓If repeated operation temporarily stops Easy Closure, wait about two seconds before trying again.
