Stopping the Decklid Movement Note: Do not apply sudden excessive force to the decklid while it is in motion. This could damage the power decklid and its components. You can stop the decklid movement by doing any of the following: • Pressing the decklid control button. • Pressing the remote control button twice. • Pressing the button on the instrument panel. • Moving your foot under and away from the center rear bumper in a single-kick motion. * * This method only works for vehicles with the hands-free decklid feature. Resetting the Power Decklid The decklid may not operate correctly and you may need to reset it if: • The vehicle battery charge is low. • You disconnect the battery. • You manually close the decklid and leave it unlatched.

When Opening The system stops when it detects an obstacle and a tone sounds. Once you remove the obstacle, you can continue to operate the decklid. Hands-Free Feature (If Equipped)

1. Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds then reconnect the battery. 2. Manually close the decklid making sure it is fully closed. 3. Power open the decklid using the remote control or instrument panel button. Obstacle Detection When Closing The system stops when it detects an obstacle. A tone sounds and the system reverses to open. Once you remove the obstacle, you can power close the decklid. Note: Entering your vehicle while the decklid is closing can cause your vehicle to bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, let the power decklid close completely before you enter your vehicle. Before driving your vehicle, check the instrument cluster for a trunk ajar or door ajar message or warning indicator. Failure to do this could result in unintentionally leaving the decklid open while driving.
