equipment may be found in that particular manufacturer's manual. Optional
equipment will also be discussed in this section which may not apply to all

The entry step features amber lighting under the step, automatic retraction
with the ignition key in the RUN position and a last out feature. Located to
the left, just inside the entry door, is the step switch.
Operating the Entry Step:
1. With the entrance door open, turn the step switch on.
2. Close the door. The step should retract and lock in the UP
position. The step light will remain on.
3. Open the door. The step should extend and lock in the DOWN
position with the under step light on. The step will retract when
the door is closed.
4. When the step switch is turned off, the step should remain in the
extended position with the door closed and the under step light
off. Close the door and turn on the ignition switch. The step will
retract for travel. To hold the entry step in the retracted position
proceed with the following:
• Turn the engine ignition switch off.
• Wait 15 seconds and then turn the power step switch from off
to on, then back off again. The step will stay retracted until
the step switch is turned ON, or the ignition switch is turned
on. The retracted position is useful for high curbs or on boat
ferries.
5. With the power switch off, the step extended, the entrance door
closed and the ignition turned on the ignition override system
will go into effect and the step will automatically retract.
6. Turn the ignition off and open the door. The step will extend and
lock in the DOWN position. This is the "last out" feature. When
the ignition is on the step will always activate with the door
movement, regardless of the power switch position.
