USING POWER RUNNING
BOARDS
WARNING: In extreme climates,
excessive ice buildup may occur, causing
the running boards not to deploy. Make
sure that the running boards have
deployed, and have finished moving
before attempting to step on them. The
running boards will resume normal
function once the blockage is cleared. WARNING:
Switch off the running
boards before jacking or placing any
object under your vehicle. Never place
your hand between the extended running
board and your vehicle. A moving running
board may cause injury.
Note: Do not use the power running boards,
front and rear hinge assemblies, running
board motors or the running board
underbody mounts to lift your vehicle when
jacking. Always use proper jacking points.
Note: The power running boards may
operate more slowly in cool temperatures.
Note: The running board mechanism may
trap debris such as mud, dirt, snow, ice and
salt. This may cause unwanted noise. If this
happens, manually set the power running
boards to the deployed position. Then wash
the system in particular the front and rear
hinge arms with a high-pressure car wash
wand.
Note: If you drive off when the power
running boards are deployed the engine may
stop. Note:
In the event of a malfunction you can
stow the power running boards manually.
Automatic Power Deploy The power running board extends when
you open the door.
Automatic Power Stow
When you close the door, the power
running board returns to the stowed
position after a two-second delay.

Note:
Do not raise the spare wheel bracket
without a wheel attached. Damage to the
winch mechanism could occur.
Vehicle Jack WARNING: Do not work on your
vehicle when the jack is the only support
as your vehicle could slip off the jack.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death. WARNING:
To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park
(P), set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel,
place an appropriate block or wheel
chock on the right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not attempt to
change a tire on the side of the vehicle
close to moving traffic. Pull far enough
off the road to avoid the danger of being
hit when operating the jack or changing
the wheel. WARNING:
Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight,
including any vehicle cargo or
modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the
authorized dealer. WARNING:
Switch off the running
boards before jacking or placing any
object under your vehicle. Never place
your hand between the extended running
board and your vehicle. A moving running
board may cause injury. Note:
Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Note: Vehicles with a Temporary Mobility
Kit do not have a vehicle jack or a lug
wrench.
Vehicle Jack Storage The jack, jack handle and wheel brace are
in a storage compartment in the front
