  • The smart liftgate detecting area extends about 20-40 in. (50-100 cm) behind the vehicle. If you are positioned in the detecting area and are carrying the smart key, the hazard warning lights blinks and the chime sounds for about 3 seconds to alert you that the liftgate opens.

  • The alert stops once the Smart key is moved outside of the detecting area within the 3 second period.

  • Smart liftgate may not operate properly if any of the following occur:

    • The Smart key is close to a radio transmitter such as a radio station or an airport which can interfere with normal operation of the transmitter.

    • The Smart key is near a mobile two way radio system or a mobile phone.

    • Another vehicle's Smart key is being operated close to your vehicle.

    • The temperature drops below zero degree.

  • Smart liftgate detecting area may change when:

    • The vehicle is parked on an incline or slope.

    • One side of the vehicle is raised or lowered relative to the opposite side.
