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 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 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 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. Automatic Power Deploy The running boards 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 running
boards return to the stowed position after
a two-second delay.

You can manually operate the running
boards in the information display.
1. Using the instrument cluster display
controls on the steering wheel, select
Settings
.
2. Select
Advanced Settings.

position and enter automatic mode when
the vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph (5 km/h).
