6.5.2.5. Auto reverse function

The auto-reverse function enables the tailgate to automatically reverse when something is caught in the tailgate as it is opening or closing. When the control unit detects an obstacle, the tailgate will reverse 5% and stop.

When the switch is operated again the tailgate will travel in the opposite direction.

A pinch sensor is mounted on each side of the tailgate. If an obstacle is detected by the pinch sensor during power close, the tailgate will reverse and return to the full open position immediately.

If the pinch sensor is damaged or removed, the power close function will not operate.

There is a small distance immediately before the closed position that cannot be detected. Make sure that all passengers keep their hands, etc., clear from the tailgate opening before closing the tailgate.
