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 automatically extend
down and out when you open the door. This
can help you enter and exit your vehicle.For vehicles with intelligent access, the
remote control determines your proximity to
the vehicle. As the remote control enters
approximately
8.9 ft (2.7 m) of the vehicle,
some exterior lights illuminate and the power
running boards deploy automatically. In
addition to deploying on both sides of the
vehicle, there is illumination around the
power running boards. The deployment is
configurable in the advanced settings of the
information display. If the configuration is
turned off, the power running boards do not
automatically deploy.
Note: Automatic power deploy approach
detection does not unlock or lock the vehicle.
It also does not interfere with the alarm
system.
Automatic Power Stow
When you close the doors, the running
boards return to the stowed position after a
two-second delay.

WARNING: It is recommended that
the wheels of the vehicle be chocked, and
that no person should remain in a vehicle
that is being jacked. WARNING:
Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased risk
of loss of vehicle control, injury or death.
Note: The jack does not require
maintenance or additional lubrication over
the service life of your vehicle.
Note: Both the front and rear jacking points
are on the frame rails. The correct locations
on the frame rails are marked with an arrow
punched into the frame rail. Jack at the
specified locations to avoid damaging your
vehicle.
1. Position the jack at the jacking point indicator arrow closest to the flat tire
location. Assemble the jack drive
extension to the lug wrench as shown
and use it to turn the jack drive clockwise
to raise the vehicle until the flat tire is
completely off the ground. 2.
Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench.
Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward.
3. Reinstall the lug nuts until the wheel is snug against the hub. Do not fully tighten
the lug nuts until the wheel has been
lowered.
4. Completely lower the vehicle by turning the jack drive counterclockwise.
5. Remove the jack and fully tighten the lug
nuts in the order shown.
