  1. Maximum Point for Opening

    The movement of opening direction beyond this position will make the tailgate to reach the maximum basic position, and overload the mechanical system (hinge).

    So, opening movement beyond this position is impossible.

    But, if the movement started from lower position, the tailgate will move beyond this point.

  2. Learned Mechanical End Position

    Mechanical End Position is the mechanical limited position, and is regarded as 100% opened.

    This position is being Learnt in the process of the first opening of the tailgate.

    After the learning, the tailgate will not go beyond the maximum basic position that is defined as soft stop.

    All of the positions will be defined by parameters that are designated by ECU.
