✽ NOTICE
If the power sliding door is open approximately 6 hours, the ECU will enter Sleep mode to conserve battery power and the door might not close automatically. Close the door or tailgate manually and then operate the door with the power operating system.
✽ NOTICE
In cold and wet climates, power sliding doors and tailgate may not work properly due to freezing conditions.

- When jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle, do not operate the power sliding door or power tailgate. This could cause the power sliding door or power tailgate to operate improperly.
