and opened using the overhead console PSD
switch(es) or the passenger PSD activation switch(es).
The power sliding door must either be manually

If the power sliding door has been manually locked, you
must unlock the PSD before it can be opened.
Notice:If you leave the power sliding door on when
you go through an automatic car wash, the door may
accidentally open. Be sure the power sliding door is
turned off when going through a car wash.If the power sliding door(s) is open or in the process of
closing when you shift out of PARK (P), a chime will
sound. This is a warning that the sliding door(s) is not
completely closed. Also, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) will indicate if the door is open. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 3-56. Stop the vehicle
and close the door.
{CAUTION:
If you shift the transaxle out of PARK (P) and
accelerate before the power sliding door
latches closed, the door may reverse to the
open position. A child or others could fall out
of the vehicle and be injured. Always make
sure the power sliding door is closed and
latched before you drive away.

Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can be more effective
than braking. For example, you come over a hill and nd
a truck stopped in your lane, or a car suddenly pulls
out from nowhere, or a child darts out from between
parked cars and stops right in front of you. You
can avoid these problems by braking — if you can stop
in time. But sometimes you cannot; there is not room.
That is the time for evasive action — steering around the
problem.
Your vehicle can perform very well in emergencies like
these. First apply your brakes.
SeeBraking on page 4-6. It is better to remove as much
speed as you can from a possible collision. Then
steer around the problem, to the left or right depending
on the space available.An emergency like this requires close attention and a
quick decision. If you are holding the steering wheel at
the recommended 9 and 3 o’clock positions, you
can turn it a full 180 degrees very quickly without
removing either hand. But you have to act fast, steer
quickly, and just as quickly straighten the wheel
once you have avoided the object.
The fact that such emergency situations are always
possible is a good reason to practice defensive driving
at all times and wear safety belts properly.
