This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules and with Licence exempt RSS
Standards of Industry Canada. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
• This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation. WARNING: Changes or
modifications not expressively approved
by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate

• Structures around the vehicle.
• Other vehicles parked next to your
vehicle.
Other short distance radio transmissions,
for example amateur radios, medical
equipment, wireless headphones, remote
controls and alarm systems can also use
the radio frequency used by your remote
control. If the frequencies are jammed, you
will not be able to use your remote control.
You can lock and unlock the doors with the
key.
Note: Make sure to lock your vehicle before
leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote control
will operate if you press any button
unintentionally.

SLIDING DOOR – FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does the power sliding door stop
moving?
The power sliding door stops when it
detects an obstacle. A tone sounds
and the power sliding door starts
moving in the opposite direction. After
you remove the obstacle, you can
continue to operate the power sliding
door.
Why is the power sliding door moving
with reduced speed? You let the power sliding door open
for more than five minutes. Fully close
the power sliding door using the button
on the instrument panel or the power
sliding door handles. Open the power
sliding door as normal.
Why can I not close the power sliding
door? If the power sliding door does not
close, restart the engine and then
close it as normal. See Closing the
Sliding Door From Inside Your
Vehicle (page 83). If the power sliding
door still does not close, manually
close the power sliding door and then
open it as normal. If the power sliding
door still does not close the system
has malfunctioned. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
What can I do if the power sliding door
does not operate as normal? If there is a malfunction on the power
sliding door, restart the engine. How can I open the sliding door if the
system loses power?
If the sliding door loses power, you
could need to apply more force when
trying to open it. Push the back of the
sliding door and the interior sliding
door handle in opening direction at the
same time and open it as normal.
