Power Ramp Operation  

The power ramp is activated by 
the electronic control system 
using any of the control switches 
identified on pages 11-13.  When 
a control switch is activated to 
start the Open functions, the 
ramp deploys after the power 
sliding door reaches the fully 
open position.  When the Close 
functions are activated, the ramp 
stow function begins immediately 
(simultaneously with the kneel 
system).

If a control switch is activated 
while the ramp is in motion 
(deploying or stowing), the ramp 
motor will stop running.  Activat-
ing a control switch again will 
start the Close functions (ramp 
will stow, vehicle will raise and 
the door will close).  

Note:  The power sliding door 
must travel from the full closed 
position to the full open position in 
order for the ramp to deploy.

Note:  If the vehicle transmission 
is disengaged from Park “P” while 
the ramp is deploying (in motion) 
or when the ramp is in the fully 
deployed position, the ramp will 
stow immediately.

Note:  If the power ramp is ob-
structed while deploying or stow-
ing, the ramp motor will stop run-
ning, provided it meets sufficient 
resistance.  Press a control switch 
again and the ramp will stow and 
the door will close.

Note:  When deploying the ramp, 
the ramp motor stops running 
when the ramp reaches the nearly 
horizontal position (approximately 

6"- 8" above ground level).  The 
ramp continues to slowly lower 
the remaining distance by the 
force of gravity.  

Forcing the Ramp:  Allow the 
power ramp to deploy (unfold 
and lower) fully before boarding 
the ramp.  Forcing the ramp out 
or down during the deploy/stow 
functions, or boarding onto the 
ramp before it is fully-deployed 
may result in damage to the 
ramp, motor assembly and/or 
electronic controller.
