tomatic opening may not operate if the

trunk lid joints are frozen.

sufficient to allow the tailgate to ope-

rate. If not, stop the tailgate movement

with the external tailgate control and

hold the tailgate in position by hand

(the tailgate may continue to open ma-

nually).
If the tailgate is moving and the engine

is started, the movement will stop for a

seconds before continuing.

obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, road salt

etc.).
