Conditions Preventing Power Liftgate Opening

The power liftgate does not open when the vehicle is moving.

WARNING

The chime will sound if you drive with the liftgate open. Stop the vehicle immediately in a safe place and check whether the liftgate is open.

CAUTION

Operating the power liftgate more than 5 times continuously may damage the drive motor. In this case, the power liftgate system enters thermal protection mode to prevent the motor from overheating.

In thermal protection mode, the power liftgate will not operate. If any power liftgate switch is pressed to try to open the liftgate, the chime will sound 3 times, but the liftgate will remain closed.

Allow the power liftgate system to cool for approximately 1 minute before operating the system again.

NOTICE

• The power liftgate can be operated when the engine is off. However, power liftgate operation consumes a large amount of electrical power. To prevent battery discharge, do not operate it excessively (for example, more than 5 times repeatedly).
• To prevent battery discharge, do not leave the power liftgate in the open position for a long time.
• Do not modify or repair any part of the power liftgate yourself. This must be done by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• When raising the vehicle with a jack to replace a tire or repair the vehicle, do not use the power liftgate. This may cause the power liftgate to operate incorrectly.
• In cold and humid climates, the power liftgate may not operate properly due to freezing conditions.
