Honda CR-V: Tailgate
The tailgate will lock when you lock
the driver’s door with the key, the
remote transmitter, the master door
lock switch, or the lock tab on the
driver’s door.
To unlock the tailgate, turn the key
clockwise twice, push the rear of the
master door lock switch, or push the
UNLOCK button twice on the
remote transmitter.

release, and lift up. To close the
tailgate, use the tailgate handle to
