power sliding door power off button, located in the
overhead console, to remove power to the handles
and buttons just inside the sliding doors. The

when the handles are manual. When the LED is lit,
pushing the power sliding door power off button
will return the handles to power operation.
NOTE:
If anything obstructs the power sliding side door
while it is closing or opening, the door will auto -
matically reverse to the closed or open position
and an audible tone will sound, provided it
meets sufficient resistance. The turn signals will
flash with sliding door movements.
If the power sliding door stops in the middle due
to obstacles, it will power open on the next
command.
