c: 3.5—7.5 mm {0.14—0.29 in}
d: –2.3—1.7 mm {–0.090—0.066 in}
•  If the measured value exceeds the standard clearance, adjust the liftgate using the following procedure:
1.  Loosen the liftgate hinge installation bolts and reposition the liftgate. (See LIFTGATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2.  Tighten the liftgate hinge installation bolts. (See LIFTGATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
3.  Verify that the gap and height difference between the liftgate and the rear fender panel is within the specification.
4.  Verify that the liftgate opens/closes smoothly.
•  If the liftgate does not open/close smoothly, adjust the liftgate lock striker position. (See LIFTGATE LOCK STRIKER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Standard clearance (With power liftgate (PLG) system)
e: 3.6—7.6 mm {0.15—0.29 in}
Standard clearance (Without power liftgate (PLG) system)
e: 4.0—8.0 mm {0.16—0.31 in}
•  If the measured value exceeds the standard clearance, adjust the liftgate using the following procedure:
1.  Loosen the liftgate hinge installation bolts and reposition the liftgate. (See LIFTGATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2.  Tighten the liftgate hinge installation bolts. (See LIFTGATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
3.  Verify that the gap between the liftgate and the rear bumper is within the specification.

4.  Spray or pour water on the liftgate and surrounding area using a hose or high pressure water pressure car wash and verify that there is no water leakage.

5.  Perform the 360° view monitor system aiming. (with 360° view monitor system) (See 360°VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM AIMING.)

6.  Perform the parking assist system initialization (calibration). (with projected vehicle path line display and without 360° view monitor system) (See PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM INITIALIZATION (CALIBRATION).)
