USING POWER RUNNING
BOARDS
WARNING: 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. WARNING:
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 board extends when
you open the door.
Automatic Power Stow
When you close the door, the power
running board returns to the stowed
position after a two-second delay.

AUXILIARY HEATER
Principle of Operation
The system is designed to reduce the time
needed to heat the engine when it is
running. It turns on or off depending on the
outside air temperature and the coolant
temperature.
The system warms the engine and the
vehicle interior. It uses fuel from the
vehicle fuel tank.
Using the Auxiliary Heater
WARNING: We recommend that
you have a qualified technician check
and repair the heater system after a
crash. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury or death. WARNING: Do not use the auxiliary
heater at fuel filling stations or near
sources of combustible vapors, dust or
in enclosed spaces. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death. The system requires a minimum of
6.1 gal
(23 L) of fuel in the vehicle fuel tank and
the outside air temperature has to be
below
37°F (3°C).
Note: The system does not operate if the
battery charge level is low.
Note: Do not use biodiesel fuel B20 as this
reduces the lifetime of the heater operation.
Note: Make sure the heater exhaust outlet,
under the vehicle, under the driver
compartment, is free from snow, ice, mud
and any other blockages to avoid issues with
the heater operation.
Note: Driving through water can cause
damage to the heater. See Driving Through
Water
(page 255).
Note: When the system is on, exhaust
fumes come from under your vehicle. This
is normal.
Note: If the heater is in the process of
stopping, excess fuel in the heater burns out
and there is some heat, exhaust and noise.
Switching the Auxiliary Heater On and Off
