Optional tailgate button install position

After the installation is completed, the controller needs to be matched when the power is plugged in: the electric tailgate is adjusted to the highest position, and the tail button is pressed for 5 seconds. After a long beep, the button is released, indicating that the matching operation is completed. (If the power off requires a rematch operation).
Height Adjustment
Adjust the tailgate to the appropriate height, press and hold the tailgate button for 5 seconds, and hear a long beep that indicates the height setting is successful.
Speed Adjustment
The tailgate switch speed is divided into 5 gears, the default is 4 gears, the lowest 2 gears, and the highest 6 gears. Press and hold the tailgate button. When the buzzer sounds 2 consecutive sounds, it means that the speed setting 2 is successful. When the buzzer is heard for 3 consecutive sounds, the speed setting 3 is successful, and so on.

Note:
- The installation instructions may differ slightly from the actual operation. If there are any differences, please follow the actual situation or contact us.
