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.
Disable the 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

and clothing clear of the power assist
steps when in motion. The steps will
reverse direction if they encounter an
