is parked on an incline as the door will slide faster in
the downhill direction.

sliding door is fully opened. This latch will keep your
sliding door open on any incline. To close the sliding
door after the hold-open latch is activated, you must
push the button on the inside grab handle or pull out
on the outside sliding door handle.

any time the vehicle is in motion. NOTE: The driver's side sliding door cannot be opened
while the fuel door is open. This feature operates only
when the sliding door is fully closed prior to opening the
fuel door.

clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.
NOTE:

closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position, provided it
meets sufficient resistance.
² There are also pinch sensors attached to the side of the
liftgate opening. Light pressure anywhere along these
strips will cause the liftgate to return to the open
position. ² The power liftgate must be in the full open or close
positions for any of the buttons to operate. If the
liftgate is not in the full open or close positions it must
be opened or closed manually.
² If the liftgate release button is activated while the

turns in an area free from large metal or metallic objects,
the ªCALº symbol will turn off and the compass will
function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the ªCALº symbol
does not appear, you must put the compass into the
Calibration Mode manually.
To put into a Calibration Mode: Turn on the ignition
switch and set the display to Comp/Temp. Press the
RESET button on vehicles equipped with a Compass/
Mini Trip Computer for at least 10 seconds until the
ªCALº symbol appears. On vehicles equipped with
Compass/Temp press and hold the C/T and US/M
buttons for 10 seconds. Release the RESET button and
complete three 360É turns in an area free from large metal
objects. The ªCALº symbol will turn off and the compass
will function normally. CAUTION!Do not place any external magnets, such as magnetic
roof mount antennas, in the vicinity of the compass.
Do not use magnetic tools when servicing the over-
head console.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic
North and Geographic North. In some areas of the
country, the difference between magnetic and geographic
North is great enough to cause the compass to give false
readings. If this occurs, the compass variance must be set.
NOTE: Magnetic materials should be kept away from
the overhead console.112 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
