Before Driving

Doors and Locks

After closing the doors and the

Door Locks

liftgate, always verify that they are

securely closed:

▼

Doors and the liftgate not securely

closed are dangerous, if the vehicle is

driven with a door and the liftgate not

securely closed, the door and the

liftgate could open unexpectedly

resulting in an accident.

WARNING

Always take all children and pets with

you or leave a responsible person

with them:

Leaving a child or a pet unattended in

a parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot

weather, temperatures inside a vehicle

can become high enough to cause

brain damage or even death.

Always conﬁrm the safety around the

vehicle before opening a door and the

liftgate:

Suddenly opening a door and the

liftgate is dangerous. A passing vehicle

or a pedestrian could be hit and cause

an accident.

Do not leave the key in your vehicle

with children and keep them in a

place where your children will not

ﬁnd or play with them:

CAUTION

Leaving children in a vehicle with the

key is dangerous. This could result in

someone being badly injured or even

killed.

Always conﬁrm the conditions

around the vehicle before opening/

closing the doors and the liftgate and

use caution during strong winds or

when parked on an incline. Not

being aware of the conditions

around the vehicle is dangerous

because ﬁngers could get caught in

the door and the liftgate or a passing

pedestrian could be hit, resulting in

an unexpected accident or injury.

Keep all doors locked when driving:

Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle

are dangerous. Passengers can fall out

if a door is accidentally opened and

can more easily be thrown out in an

accident.

Always close all the windows and

moonroof, lock the doors, fuel-ﬁller

lid, and liftgate and take the key with

you when leaving your vehicle

unattended:

Leaving your vehicle unlocked is

dangerous as children could lock

themselves in a hot vehicle, which

could result in death. Also, a vehicle

left unlocked becomes an easy target

for thieves and intruders.

NOTE



Always stop the engine and lock the

doors. In addition, to prevent theft of

valuables, do not leave them inside

the cabin.



If the key is left in the following areas

and you leave the vehicle, the doors

may be locked depending on the

impact strong enough to inﬂate the

air bags, all the doors, fuel-ﬁller lid,

and liftgate are automatically

unlocked after about 6 seconds have

elapsed from the time of the

accident.

The doors, fuel-ﬁller lid, and liftgate

may not unlock depending on how

2. Unlock

3. Lock

Do not drive with the liftgate open:

Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is

dangerous. An open liftgate in a

moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas

to be drawn into the cabin. This gas

contains CO (carbon monoxide),

which is colorless, odorless, and highly

poisonous, and it can cause loss of

consciousness and death. Moreover,

an open liftgate could cause occupants

to fall out in an accident.

Do not stack or leave loaded luggage

unsecured in the luggage

compartment:

Otherwise, the luggage may move or

collapse, resulting in injury or an

accident. In addition, do not load

luggage higher than the seatbacks. It

may aﬀect the side or rear ﬁeld of view.

CAUTION

Before opening the liftgate, remove

any snow and ice accumulation on it.

Otherwise, the liftgate could close

under the weight of the snow and ice

resulting in injury.

Opening and Closing the Liftgate

Be careful when opening/closing the

liftgate during strong winds. If a

strong gust blows against the liftgate,

it could close suddenly resulting in

injury.

Fully open the liftgate and make sure

that it stays open. If the liftgate is

only opened partially, it could slam

shut by vibration or wind gusts

resulting in injury.

When loading or unloading luggage

WARNING

The jam-safe equipment does not

activate during easy closure operation

when the power liftgate is between the

near-shut position and fully closed

position.

Always check the area around the

power liftgate before opening/closing

it:

Not checking for occupants and

objects around the power liftgate

before opening/closing it is

dangerous. The jam-safe equipment is

designed to prevent jamming in the

event an obstruction is in the liftgate's

path. The system may not detect

certain objects obstructing the liftgate

depending on the way they are

positioned and their shape. However,

if the jam-safe function detects an

obstruction and moves the liftgate in

the reverse direction, an occupant in

the liftgate's path could be seriously

injured.

When the power liftgate is moving in

the open/close direction and an

obstruction is detected, the beep

sound will be heard and the liftgate

moves in the reverse direction and

stops.

Liftgate easy closure

The Easy Closure system automatically

closes the liftgate completely from the

near-shut position.

This system also operates when the

liftgate is closed manually.

WARNING

CAUTION

When closing a liftgate, always keep

hands and ﬁngers away from the

liftgate:

Placing hands or ﬁngers around a

liftgate is dangerous because the

liftgate closes automatically from the

near-shut position, which could cause

hands and ﬁngers to be pinched and

injured.

Sensors are installed on both ends of

the power liftgate. Be careful not to

allow the sensors to be scratched or

damaged by sharp objects, otherwise

the liftgate may no longer open/close

automatically. In addition, if the sensor

is damaged while the liftgate is closing

automatically, the system will stop.

NOTE



If the electric liftgate opener is

pressed while the easy closure

function is operating, the liftgate can

be opened.



If the liftgate is opened/closed

repeatedly in a short period of time,

the easy closure function may not

operate. Wait for about 2 seconds

and then try again.
