MANUAL LIFTGATE / LIFTGATE RELEASE BUTTON

The Liftgate Release Button is located underneath the rear liftgate hatch. With liftgate unlocked, press the Liftgate Release Button and pull the liftgate up by the handle to open.

Quick Tips:

  • The liftgate must be unlocked before it can be opened by the Liftgate Release Button 
  • The liftgate unlocks automatically and can then be opened, when the Smart Key fob is within close proximity to the vehicle

Certain features are available on select Kia models.
