- Original Car Key Control: Use your vehicle's original key fob to open and close the tailgate remotely. Refer to your vehicle's manual for specific button functions if not clearly marked.
- Driver's Seat Button Control: A dedicated button, typically located on the driver's side, allows for convenient opening and closing of the tailgate from within the vehicle. This integration is designed to maintain the original appearance of the car's interior.
- Trunk Button Control: A button located on the tailgate itself provides direct control for opening and closing.
- Kick Sensing Control (Optional): For systems equipped with a kick sensor, a simple foot-lifting action directly below the car's rear bumper will activate the tailgate. Ensure there are no obstacles before using this feature.
5.2. Foot Sensing Switch Operation

To operate the tailgate using the foot sensing switch:
- Ensure the vehicle is unlocked or the key fob is within range.
- Stand behind the vehicle, approximately in the center of the rear bumper.
- Perform a quick, single kick motion under the bumper, then retract your foot. Avoid prolonged contact or multiple kicks.
- The tailgate will begin to open or close. Step back to allow for clear operation.
Caution: Always ensure the area around the tailgate is clear of people and objects before activating the foot sensor.
5.3. Height Setting Adjustment

The tailgate opening height can be customized and memorized:
- Open the tailgate to your desired height manually.
- Press and hold the tailgate close button (usually located on the tailgate itself) until you hear a "beep" or the lights flash, indicating the height has been saved.
- The tailgate will now open to this memorized height each time. To reset, repeat the process at a different height or consult the full installation guide.
