USING POWER RUNNING
BOARDS
WARNINGS
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. 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. Note:
Do not use the power running boards,
front and rear hinge assemblies, running
board motors or the running board
underbody mounts to lift your vehicle when
jacking. Always use proper jacking points.
Note: The power running boards may
operate more slowly in cool temperatures.
Note: The running board mechanism may
trap debris such as mud, dirt, snow, ice and
salt. This may cause unwanted noise. If this
happens, manually set the power running
boards to the deployed position. Then wash
the system in particular the front and rear
hinge arms with a high-pressure car wash
wand.
Note: If you drive off when the power
running boards are deployed the engine may
stop.
Note: In the event of a malfunction you can
stow the power running boards manually. Automatic Power Deploy
The power running boards automatically
extend down and out when you open the
door. This can help you enter and exit your
vehicle.
Automatic Power Stow
When you close the doors, the power
running boards return to the stowed
position after a two-second delay.
Manual Power Deploy
You can manually operate the power
running boards in the information display.
See General Information (page 85).

Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the autowipers. When you
select low sensitivity, the wipers will
operate when the sensor detects a large
amount of water on the windshield. When
you select high sensitivity, the wipers will
operate when the sensor detects a small
amount of water on the windshield.
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.
Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,
snow or salty road mist can cause
inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing.
In these conditions, you can do the
following:
• Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on
the windshield.
• Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
• Switch autowipers off.
Note: If you switch autolamps and
autowipers on, the headlamps will
automatically turn on when the windshield
wipers continuously operate. Autowipers Settings (If Equipped)
Autowipers default to on and remain on
until you switch it off in the information
display. With autowipers switched off, the
wipers operate in intermittent mode. See
General Information
(page 85).
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note: Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may
cause the washer pump to overheat. To operate the washers and spray the
windshield, pull the lever toward you.
A wipe will occur a few seconds after
washing to clear any remaining washer
fluid. This feature can be switched on or
off in the information display. See General
Information
(page 85).
