You can disarm the system by any of
the following actions:
• Press the unlock control.
• Unlock the doors with a key.
LIFTGATE
To open the liftgate window (if
equipped), insert key into lock and

of the way.
To open the liftgate, insert key into
lock and turn counterclockwise. Pull
back and upward on liftgate handle
to fully open liftgate.
• The auto-rise feature automatically raises the liftgate or window (if
equipped). In cold weather you may have to assist opening the liftgate
or window since the auto-rise feature may slow down.
• Do not open the liftgate or liftgate window in a garage or other
enclosed area with a low ceiling. If the liftgate window is raised and
the liftgate is also opened, both liftgate and window could be damaged
against a low ceiling.
• The liftgate can be locked by turning the key clockwise in between
the upright key position and the liftgate window (if equipped) key
