To disable
Press the OFF control in the
overhead console to turn off the
PSD. This prevents opening the PSD
using the rear seat control(s), but
the door(s) can be opened manually
with the handle. With the child
safety lock engaged, only the
outside handle will open the door.
The controls in the overhead console and the Remote Entry System will
remain functional with the system shut OFF.
Opening and closing the PSD
The sliding door must be unlocked for it to operate. The key does not
have to be in the ignition. To help avoid accidental operation of the
Power Sliding Door, disable the PSD second row passenger controls.

position, either sliding door can be
opened or closed by:
•pushing and releasing the
overhead console right or left
hand control

left hand second row passenger
control

theLocks and securitychapter.
The door will open or close fully using these options.
With the ON/OFF control in the OFF position, either sliding door can be
operated by pulling the inside or outside handle and sliding the door
back manually.
The left hand PSD will not open (manually or power) if the fuel door is
open regardless of the ON/OFF control position.

will automatically reverse to the open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
