NOTICE

  • In some circumstances resetting the power tailgate operation may need to be performed. Some instances where resetting the power tailgate may be required include:

    • When the 12-volt battery is recharged

    • When the 12-volt battery is reinstalled after removal or replacement

    • When the related fuse is reinstalled after removal or replacement

  • Wait until the tailgate fully opens to complete resetting. If the tailgate stops before it is fully open, resetting cannot be completed.

  • If the power tailgate does not operate properly after the above procedure, we recommend the system inspected by an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
