THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 29 SLIDING SIDE DOOR The sliding door may be opened from the inside or the outside. Pull out on the outside handle to open the sliding door from the outside. To open the sliding door from the inside, press the button on the grab handle and open the door. To keep your door operating properly, observe the following guidelines: • Always open the door smoothly. • Avoid high impacts against the door stop when opening the door. This is very important when your vehicle is parked on an incline as the door will slide faster in the downhill direction. • There is a hold-open latch that is activated when the sliding door is fully opened. This latch will keep your sliding door open on any incline. To close the sliding door after the hold-open latch is activated, you must push the button on the inside grab handle or pull out on the outside sliding door handle. • Use the grab handle on the inside of the sliding door to assist you in closing and securing the door. 2 Sliding Door Hardware Always make sure that the sliding door is fully latched any time the vehicle is in motion.
