STEP ONE

Ensure your key fob is within range of the vehicle

In order for the liftgate or sliding side door to open, the keyless entry device must be within a range of the vehicle's sensor. However, there's no need to remove the fob from your pocket or purse.

STEP TWO

Kick your foot gently under the center of the car

Kick your foot directly under the sensor without touching the vehicle. On 2023 models and newer, this should be accompanied by two quick beeps. The first is for when the sensor recognizes the foot, while the second beep occurs once the liftgate starts to open by itself! Sienna only: To open the sliding side door, find the sensor icon on the side sill and kick your foot under it.

STEP THREE

Step away from the rear of the vehicle

Remain cautious of the liftgate opening in front of you. Keep your head and limbs far enough away from the vehicle to prevent injury during this process. Also, ensure that other passengers are clear of the liftgate or sliding side door before attempting to open or close.

STEP FOUR

Repeat step two to close

When you're ready to close the liftgate or sliding side door, simply repeat step two by kicking your foot under the sensor.

Tips to Remember

Brand Award Image

Smart Key required

In order for the Kick Sensor to work, you must have the Smart Key on you (in your pocket or purse is fine).

Brand Award Image

Keep it to one key

If there is another Smart Key in the car, the system may take slightly longer than normal to operate.

Brand Award Image

Make it quick

Don't let your foot linger for more than a second or so. The hands-free power liftgate will not start operating as long as a foot is detected under the sensor.

Brand Award Image

One kick should do it

Kicking more than once may interrupt the opening or closing of the liftgate.

Brand Award Image

Stand back

You'll need to stand back 10-13 inches in order for the Kick Sensor to function safely.

Brand Award Image

Vehicle must be off

The Kick Sensor will only operate if your vehicle is turned off.
