OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For control units #9514 and #9591
1. After the installation is complete and with the entrance door open, turn the power switch on.
2. Close the door. The step should retract and lock in the up position.
3. Open the door. The step should extend and lock in the down position with the understep light
on.
NOTE - The under step light is not available on all step models.
4. Turn the power switch off. The step should remain in the extended position with the understep
light off when the door is closed. The procedure can also hold the step in the retracted position.
5. With the power switch off, the step extended, and the entrance door closed, turn on the vehicle
ignition. The ignition safety system will go into effect and the step will automatically retract.
NOTE -
If the yellow wire was not connected in Step #11 of the HOOKUP PROCEDURE the
ignition safety system is inoperative and the step will remain in the extended position. If the
vehicle is driven with the step in the extended position there is the possibility of causing major
damage to both the step and the vehicle. The power switch must be turned on for the step to
retract.
WARNING: When the ignition safety system goes into effect and the step automatically retracts,
DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR until the step completely retracts. If the door is opened before the
step completely retracts and locks in the up position, the step will stop moving. The step may only
be partially extended. Stepping on a partially extended step may cause damage to the step frame
and/or motor assembly. When the door is closed the step will finish retracting.
WARNING: If the entrance door is opened before the vehicle ignition is turned off, the step will
extend as soon as the ignition is turned off, even if the power switch is off. If the step is not
allowed to extend fully and lock out before the door is closed, the step will stop moving. The step
may only be partially extended. Stepping on a partially extended step may cause damage to the
step frame and/or motor assembly. If the door remains closed, the step will retract if either the
ignition or power switch is turned on. If the door is reopened the power switch must be turned on
for the step to finish extending.
WARNING: If your step does not have the 'Last out" feature, it will not extend once the ignition
has been turned off and the door is opened. The power switch must be turned on in order to
operate the step. To determine if your unit has the "Last out" feature follow these procedures:
With the ignition switch on, the door closed, the power switch off, and the step retracted, turn off
the ignition. Open the door. If the step extends, your unit is equipped with the "last out "feature.
Be Safe - Look Before You Leap!
