Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid (2019 year). Manual — part 9

Hands-Free Liftgate — If Equipped

To open the liftgate using hands-free activation, use a
straight in and out kicking motion under the vehicle
activation zone in the general location below the liftgate
door handle. Do not move your foot sideways or in a
sweeping motion or the sensors may not detect the motion.

When a valid kicking motion is completed, the liftgate will
chime, the hazard lights will flash and the liftgate will open
after approximately one second. This assumes all options
are enabled in the radio.

NOTE:

To open the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a valid

Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door handle.
If a valid Passive Entry key fob is not within 5 ft (1.5 m), the
liftgate will not respond to any kicks.

CAUTION!

The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned on or
off in Uconnect Settings. Refer to “Uconnect Settings”
in “Multimedia” for further information. The Hands-
Free Liftgate feature should be turned off during
Jacking, Tire Changing, and Vehicle Service.

NOTE:
• The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate when the

transmission is in Park.

• If anything obstructs the Hands-Free liftgate while it is

opening, the liftgate will automatically reverse to the
closed position, provided it meets sufficient resistance.

• There are pinch sensors attached to the side of the

liftgate opening. Light pressure anywhere along these
strips will cause the liftgate to return to the open
position.

• If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions

within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop. If this occurs, the liftgate must be operated manu-
ally.

• The power liftgate will release, but not power open, in

temperatures below −12° F (−24° C). Be sure to remove
any buildup of snow or ice from the liftgate before
opening the liftgate.

• If the liftgate is left open for an extended period of time,

the liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset
power liftgate functionality.

WARNING!

• Driving with the liftgate open can allow poisonous

exhaust gases into your vehicle. You and your pas-
sengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep the
liftgate closed when you are operating the vehicle.

• If you are required to drive with the liftgate open,

make sure that all windows are closed, and the
climate control blower switch is set at high speed. Do
not use the recirculation mode.

Gas props support the liftgate in the open position. How-
ever, because the gas pressure drops with temperature, it
may be necessary to assist the props when opening the
liftgate in cold weather.

NOTE:

Allow the power system to open the liftgate.

Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may activate the
liftgate obstacle detection feature and stop the power
operation or reverse its direction.

WARNING!

During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.

Canadian/Gate Operator Programming

For programming transmitters in Canada/United States
that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after
several seconds of transmission.

Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter signals
to time-out (or quit) after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick up
the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to time-out in
the same manner.

It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling
process to prevent possible overheating of the garage door
or gate motor.

1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm)

away from the HomeLink button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.

142

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button, while

you press and release (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-
mitter every two seconds until HomeLink has success-
fully accepted the frequency signal. The indicator light
will flash slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.

4. Watch for the HomeLink indicator to change flash rates.

When it changes, it is programmed. It may take up to 30
seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage door may
open and close while you are programming.

5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink button and

observe the indicator light.

NOTE:

• If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming

is complete and the garage door/device should acti-
vate when the HomeLink button is pressed.

• To program the two remaining HomeLink buttons,

repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT
erase the channels.

If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for
programming, plug it back in at this time.

Reprogramming A Single HomeLink Button (Canadian/
Gate Operator)

To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:

1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.

2. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button until the

indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. Do not
release the button.

3. Without releasing the button, proceed with “Canadian/

Gate Operator Programming” step 2 and follow all
remaining steps.

Using HomeLink

To operate, push and release the programmed HomeLink
button. Activation will now occur for the programmed
device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator, security

WARNING! (Continued)

• Close the lid when not in use and while driving the

vehicle.

• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric

shock and failure.

CAUTION!

• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power

from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge suffi-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
vehicle from starting.

• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,

vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery
even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.

• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long

periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces-
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to

with EVSE charger.

• The vehicle uses a power inverter connected to the

HV battery to charge the 12V battery as well as
supports the 12V electrical loads, when the vehicle is
not ON.

Power Inverter — If Equipped

There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt Power Inverter outlet located
on the right side of the vehicle, before the third row of seats
to convert DC current to AC current. The Power Inverter
can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring up to 150 Watts. Certain high-end
video game consoles will exceed this power limit, as will
most power tools.

The Power Inverter turns on when the device is plugged in,
and the ignition is in RUN mode. It turns off when the
device is unplugged or the ignition is no longer in RUN
mode.

The Power Inverter is designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the
Power Inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the Power Inverter, it resets. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electri-
cal devices prior to using the Power Inverter.
