GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE27
To keep your door operating properly, observe the
following guidelines:
Always open the door smoothly.
Avoid high impacts against the door stop when
opening the door. This is very important when your
vehicle is parked on an incline as the door will
slide faster in the downhill direction.
There is a hold-open latch that is activated when
the 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 rock the inside handle forward or pull
outward on the exterior handle.
Always make sure that the sliding door is fully latched
anytime the vehicle is in motion.
NOTE:
The left side sliding door cannot be opened while the
fuel door is open.
