With the ON/OFF control in the OFF position, either sliding door can be
closed by pulling the inside or outside handle and sliding the door all the
way forward to the latched position manually.
Safety/Obstructions
If anything obstructs the Power Sliding Door while it is closing, the door
will automatically reverse to the open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
Resetting the PSD
The power sliding door may operate incorrectly or not at all because of
the following condition:
²a low voltage or dead battery
²disconnecting the battery
²if the PSD fuse (fuse #6) is removed or blown. Refer toFuses and
relaysin theRoadside emergencieschapter.
If any of these conditions occur, reset the PSD by:
1. Check to see if power sliding door is unlocked and securely closed.
2. Make sure the gearshift is in (P) Park.
3. Push the power door control on the overhead console to open the
door.
4. Wait five (5) seconds and close the door by pressing the power door
control on the overhead console.
5. Wait five (5) seconds and repeat Steps 3 and 4 and go on to step 6.
6. Repeat steps 3±5 for opposite door.
If the door does not rest in the fully open position, repeat Steps 1±4
again. If the door still does not operate correctly:
7. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
8. Remove the PSD fuse (fuse #6) from the passenger fuse panel and
leave it out for thirty (30) seconds. Refer toFuses and relaysin the
Roadside emergencieschapter.
9. Reinstall the fuse and wait ten (10) seconds.
10. Repeat steps 1±6 above.
If the door still does not operate correctly, see your dealer for service.

²Do not operate the vehicle with a low power steering pump fluid level
(below the MIN mark on the reservoir).
If the power steering system breaks down (or if the engine is turned
off), you can steer the vehicle manually, but it takes more effort.
If the steering wanders or pulls, the condition could be caused by any of
the following:
²underinflated tire(s) on any wheel(s)
²uneven vehicle loading
²high crown in center of road
²high crosswinds
²wheels out of alignment
²loose or worn suspension components
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE OPERATION
Brake-shift interlock
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) unless the brake
pedal is depressed.
If the gearshift lever cannot be moved from P (Park) with the brake
pedal depressed, it is possible that a fuse has blown or the vehicle's
brakelamps are not operating properly. Refer toFuses and relaysin the
Roadside emergencieschapter.
Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the brakelamps
are working.
If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow it may be rocked out by
shifting between forward and reverse gears, stopping between shifts, in a
steady pattern. Press lightly on the accelerator in each gear.
Do not rock the vehicle if the engine is not at normal operating
temperature or damage to the transaxle may occur.
Do not rock the vehicle for more than a few minutes or damage
to the transaxle and tires may occur or the engine may overheat.

FUSES AND RELAYS
Fuses
If electrical components in the
vehicle are not working, a fuse may
have blown. Blown fuses are
identified by a broken wire within
the fuse. Check the appropriate
fuses before replacing any electrical
components.
Note:Always replace a fuse with one that has the specified amperage
rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage rating can cause severe wire
damage and could start a fire.
