Power Assist Steps

Warning
To avoid personal injury or property
damage, before entering or exiting
the vehicle, be sure the power assist
step is fully extended. Do not step
on the power assist step while it is
moving. Never place hands or other
body parts between the extended
power assist step and the vehicle.
If equipped, the power assist steps will
deploy when the door is opened and
automatically retract three seconds
after the door is closed. The power
assist steps will retract immediately if
the vehicle starts moving.
Disable the power assist steps before
jacking or placing any object under
the vehicle. Too much ice buildup
may prevent deployment of the power
assist steps. Check the step position
before exiting the vehicle. If this
happens, disable the power assist
steps, clear the ice, then enable the
assist steps and confirm normal
function prior to use.
Keep hands, children, pets, objects,
and clothing clear of the power assist
steps when in motion. The steps will
reverse direction if they encounter an
obstruction when opening or closing.
Remove the obstruction, then open
and close the door on the same side
to complete the motion of the assist
steps. If the obstruction is not cleared,
the assist steps remain extended while
driving.
To extend or retract both power assist
steps for cleaning, see Vehicle
Personalization 0 139.
Enable/Disable
To enable or disable the power assist
steps, see Vehicle Personalization
