Sweeping your foot from side to side,
or kicking at an odd angle.

Detection Zones

E253799

The detection area is on the left-hand side
and right-hand side of the rear bumper
area.

Note:

Some vehicles may have the ability

to detect the kicking motion from under the
trailer hitch.

Note:

Allow the power system to close the

liftgate. Manually pushing the liftgate may
activate the system’s obstacle detection
feature and stop the power operation or
reverse its direction, replicate a strut failure,
or damage mechanical components.

STOPPING THE LIFTGATE
MOVEMENT

Note:

Do not apply sudden excessive force

to the liftgate while it is in motion. This
could damage the power liftgate and its
components.

Note:

Selections will vary depending on

region or options.

You can stop the liftgate movement by
doing any of the following:
•

Pressing the liftgate control button on
the liftgate.

•

Pressing the liftgate control button
inside the vehicle.

•

Pressing the liftgate button on the
remote control twice.

•

Pressing the liftgate button on an
authorized device.

•

Moving your foot under and away from
the center rear bumper in a single-kick
motion.

LIFTGATE OBSTACLE
DETECTION

Closing the Liftgate

The system stops when it detects an
obstacle. A tone sounds and the system
reverses to open. Once you remove the
obstacle, you can power close the liftgate.

Note:

To prevent accidental obstacle

detection, let the power liftgate close
completely before you enter your vehicle.

Opening the Liftgate

The system stops when it detects an
obstacle and a tone sounds. Once you
remove the obstacle, you can continue to
operate the liftgate.

POWER RUNNING BOARD
PRECAUTIONS

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.

Do not use the running boards, front and
rear hinge assemblies, running board
motors, or the running board underbody
mounts to lift your vehicle when jacking.
Use proper jacking points.

The running boards could move slower in
cold temperatures.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there unwanted noise
coming from my power running

•

The power running board mechanism
could trap debris such as mud, dirt,
snow, ice and salt. If this happens, set
the running boards to the deployed
position. Wash the system, in particular
the front and rear hinge arms, with a
high-pressure car wash wand.

protection. Failure to use washer fluid
with antifreeze protection in cold
weather could result in impaired
windshield vision and increase the risk
of injury or accident.

Do not operate the washers when the
washer reservoir is empty. This could cause
the washer pump to overheat.

Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects
hit the windshield.

HEADLAMPS –
TROUBLESHOOTING

HEADLAMPS – FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there condensation in the
headlamps?

•

Headlamps have vents to
accommodate normal changes in air
pressure. Condensation can be a
natural by-product of this design.
When moist air enters the lamp
assembly through the vents, there is a
possibility that condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When
normal condensation occurs, a fine
mist can form on the interior of the
lens. The fine mist eventually clears
and exits through the vents during
normal operation.

How much condensation is
acceptable?

•

The presence of a fine mist, for
example no streaks, drip marks or large
droplets. A fine mist covers less than
50% of the lens.

How long does it take for the
acceptable condensation to clear?

•

Clearing time can take as long as 48
hours under dry weather conditions.

How much condensation is
unacceptable?

•

A water puddle inside the lamp.
Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.

What should I do if unacceptable
condensation is present?

•

Have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.

Why do my headlamps turn off
when I have them switched on
when I switch my vehicle off?

•

The battery saver turns the headlamps
off after a short period of time after you
switch your vehicle off.
