POWER RUNNING BOARD
PRECAUTIONS
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.
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.
Use proper jacking points.
The running boards could move slower in
cold temperatures.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is there unwanted noise coming
from my power running boards?
The power running board mechanism
could trap debris such as mud, dirt,
snow, ice and salt. If this happens, 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.
