POWER LIFTGATE

WARNING: It is extremely dangerous

to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of
a vehicle. In a crash, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Do not allow people to
ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seatbelts. Make
sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and properly using a seatbelt. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury or death.

WARNING: Make sure that you fully

close the liftgate to prevent exhaust fumes
from entering your vehicle. If you are
unable to fully close the liftgate, open the
air vents or the windows to allow fresh air
to enter your vehicle. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.

WARNING: Keep keys out of reach

of children. Do not allow children to
operate or play near an open or moving
power liftgate. You should supervise the
operation of the power liftgate at all times.

Note:  Make sure that you close the liftgate
before operating or moving your vehicle,
especially in an enclosure, like a garage or
a parking structure.  This could damage the
liftgate and its components.

Note:  Do not hang anything, for example a
bike rack, from the glass or liftgate.  This
could damage the liftgate and its
components.

The liftgate only operates with the
transmission in park (P).

Three warning tones sound as the liftgate
begins to power close. If there is a problem
with the open or close request, one of the
following may occur:
•

A tone sounds if the ignition is on and
the transmission is not in park (P).

•

A tone sounds if the battery voltage is
below the minimum operating voltage.

•

A tone sounds if the liftgate is not fully
closed and your vehicle is moving at a
speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).

If the liftgate starts to close after it has fully
opened, this indicates there may be
excessive weight on the liftgate or a possible
strut failure. A repetitive tone sounds and
the liftgate closes under control. A repetitive
tone sounds and the liftgate closes under
control. If the liftgate continues to close after
opening, have the system checked by an
authorized dealer.

Opening and Closing the Liftgate

WARNING: Make sure all persons

are clear of the power liftgate area before
using the power liftgate control.

Note: Make sure the area behind your
vehicle is free from obstruction and that
there is enough room for you to operate the
liftgate. Objects too close to your vehicle, for
example a wall, garage door or another
vehicle may come into contact with the
moving liftgate. This could damage the
liftgate and its components.

Note: Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.

Note:  Do not leave the liftgate open while
driving. This could damage the liftgate and
its components.

liftgate may activate the system’s obstacle
detection feature and stop the power
operation or reverse its direction, replicate
a strut failure, or damage mechanical
components.

Closing the Liftgate

WARNING: Keep clear of the liftgate

when using the rear switch.

E138636

Press and release the liftgate control button.

Stopping the Liftgate Movement

Note:  Do not apply sudden excessive force
to the liftgate while it is in motion.  This could
damage the power liftgate and its
components.

You can stop the liftgate movement by doing
any of the following:
•

Pressing the liftgate control button.

•

Pressing the liftgate button on the remote
control twice.

•

Pressing the liftgate 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 liftgate feature.

Setting the Liftgate Open Height

1. Open the liftgate.

2. Stop the liftgate movement by pressing

the control button on the liftgate when it
reaches the desired height.

Note: Once the liftgate has stopped moving,
you can also manually move it to the desired
height.

3. Press and hold the liftgate control button

on the liftgate until a tone sounds,
indicating programming is complete.

Note: You can only use the liftgate control
button to program the height.

Note: You cannot program the height if the
liftgate position is too low.

The new open liftgate height is recalled
when the power liftgate is opened.  To
change the programmed height, repeat the
above procedure.  Once you open the power
liftgate, you can manually move it to a
different height.

Note: The system recalls the new
programmed height, even if you disconnect
the battery.

When operating the power liftgate after you
have programmed a lower height than fully
open, you can fully open the liftgate by
manually pushing it upward to the maximum
open position.

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 liftgate.

Note: Entering your vehicle while the liftgate
is closing can cause your vehicle to bounce
and activate obstacle detection. To prevent
this, let the power liftgate close completely
before you enter your vehicle. Before driving
off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate
or door ajar message or warning indicator.
Failure to do this could result in
unintentionally leaving the liftgate open
while driving.

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 liftgate.

Switching the Power Liftgate On or Off

You can switch the power liftgate on or off
through the vehicle settings in your
information display.

When switched off, the liftgate only unlatches
and will not power open or close.

Hands-Free Feature

 (If Equipped)

Make sure you have an intelligent access
transmitter within 3 ft (1 m) of the liftgate.

1. Move your foot under and away from the

rear bumper detection area in a
single-kick motion.  Do not move your
foot sideways or the sensors may not
detect the motion.  Kick between the
exhaust and hitch if your vehicle has a
hitch.

2. The liftgate will power open or close.

Note: Allow the power system to open the
liftgate. Manually pushing or pulling the
liftgate may activate the system’s obstacle
detection feature and stop the power
operation or reverse its direction, replicate
a strut failure, or damage mechanical
components.

Note:  Splashing water may cause the
hands-free liftgate to open.  Keep the
intelligent access key away from the rear
bumper detection area when washing your
vehicle.

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM

Note:  The system is not compatible with
non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems. 
Use of these systems may result in engine
starting problems and a loss of security
protection.

Note:  Metallic objects, electronic devices
or a second coded key on the same key
chain may result in vehicle starting problems,
especially if they are too close to the key
when starting your vehicle.  Prevent these
objects from touching the coded key when
starting your vehicle.  Switch the ignition off,
move all objects on the key chain away from
the coded key and restart your vehicle if a
problem occurs.

Note:  Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in your vehicle.  Always take your keys and
lock all doors when leaving your vehicle.

SecuriLock™

The system helps prevent the engine from
starting unless you use a coded key
programmed to your vehicle.  Using the
wrong key may prevent your vehicle from
starting.  A message may appear in the
information display.

If you are unable to start your vehicle with a
coded key, it is not operating correctly.  A
message may appear in the information
display.

Automatic Arming

The system arms when you switch the
ignition off.

Automatic Disarming

The system disarms when you switch the
ignition on with a coded key.

Replacement Keys

Note: Your vehicle comes with two keys.

The intelligent access key functions as a
programmed key that operates the driver
door lock and turns on the intelligent access
with push button start system, as well as a
remote control.

If your coded keys are lost or stolen and you
do not have an extra coded key, you need
to erase the key codes from your vehicle and
program new coded keys.  Contact an
authorized dealer.

Store a spare intelligent access key away
from your vehicle in a safe place.  You can
purchase replacement keys or remote
controls from an authorized dealer.

Programming a Spare Intelligent Access
Key

Note: You can program a maximum of four
intelligent access keys to your vehicle.

You must have two previously programmed
intelligent access keys inside your vehicle
and the new unprogrammed intelligent
access keys readily accessible. Contact an
authorized dealer to have the spare key
programmed if two previously programmed
keys are not available.
