Driver Controls Enable/disable: To enable/disable the power running board feature, refer to the Message center in this chapter. • When this feature is disabled , the running boards will move to the stowed position regardless of the position of the doors. • When this feature is enabled , the running boards will move back to the correct positions based off of the door positions. Bounce-back: • If an object is in the way of the moving running board, the running board will automatically bounce back in the reverse direction and move to the end of travel. Note: The running boards may operate slower in cooler temperatures. In adverse conditions, debris such as mud, dirt, and salt may become trapped in the running board mechanism, possibly leading to unwanted noise. If this occurs, manually set the running boards to the deployed position and flush the system (in particular the front and rear hinge arms) with a high-pressure car wash wand. Note: Do not use the running boards, front and rear hinge assemblies, running board motors, or the running board under body mounts to lift the vehicle when jacking. Please utilize proper jacking points. Refer to Changing the tires in the Roadside Emergencies chapter. WARNING: In extreme climates, excessive ice buildup may occur, causing the running boards not to deploy. Be sure that the running boards have deployed, and have finished moving before attempting to step on them. Note: The running boards will resume normal function once the blockage is cleared. WARNING: Turn off the running boards before jacking or placing any object under the vehicle. Never place your hand between the extended running board and the vehicle. A moving running board may cause injury. SPEED CONTROL With speed control set, you can maintain a set speed without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal. 100 2009 Navigator (nav) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
