Transporting Items That Can Catch Fire
Warning
To avoid personal injury and/or vehicle damage when transporting items that can catch fire, such as leaves, mulch, hay, or cardboard, in the truck bed:
- Make sure items are securely contained inside the truck bed. Never allow them to hang over the sides or fall in between the truck bed and the cab.
- Never place items between the cab and the truck bed. They could touch hot exhaust parts and ignite.
Warning
Keep cigarettes, sparks, and other ignition sources away from the area between the bed of the truck and cab. They could fall onto the fuel system below and start a fire. You or others could be injured and/or the vehicle damaged.
Power Assist Steps
Warning
To avoid personal injury or property damage, before entering or exiting the vehicle, be sure the power assist step is fully extended. Do not step on the power assist step while it is moving. Never place hands or other body parts between the extended power assist step and the vehicle.
If equipped, the power assist steps, when enabled, will extend when the door is opened. They will retract three seconds after the door is closed or immediately if the vehicle starts moving. Keep hands, children, pets, objects, and clothing clear of the power assist steps when in motion. The steps will reverse direction if there is an obstruction. If possible, carefully remove the obstruction, then open and close the door on the same side to complete the motion. After obstacle detection, the boards will remain in their previous position (Extend/ Stow) until another motion is requested. After obstacle detection, the boards will remain in the previous position until another motion is requested. If the obstacle is not cleared and another motion is requested, the boards will make contact with the obstacle and then reverse to the previous position. During automatic deployment, a warning will be displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC) only when the running boards are obstructed. Slight movement of the steps while extended is normal.
Kick Switch
- Place the vehicle in P (Park) and unlock the doors.
- Kick the switch to extend the power assist step to the tire.
- Kick the switch again to return to normal operation.

Cleaning
The power assist steps can be extended or retracted for cleaning. To view available settings from the infotainment screen, touch Settings > Vehicle > Power Assist Steps.
Vehicle Security
This vehicle has theft-deterrent features; however, they do not make the vehicle impossible to steal.
Vehicle Alarm System
The indicator light, on the instrument panel near the windshield, indicates the status of the system.
- Off: The alarm system is disarmed.
- On Solid: The vehicle is secured during the delay to arm the system.
- Fast Flash: The vehicle is unsecured. A door or the hood is open.
- Slow Flash: The alarm system is armed.
Arming the Alarm System
- Turn off the vehicle.
- Lock the vehicle in one of two ways:
- Use the remote key.
- With a door open, press Q on the interior of the door.
- After 30 seconds, the alarm system will arm and the indicator light will begin to slowly flash. Pressing Q on the remote key a second time will bypass the 30-second delay and immediately arm the alarm system.
The vehicle alarm system will not arm if the doors are locked with the key. If the driver door is opened without first unlocking with the remote key, the horn will chirp and the lights will flash to indicate pre-alarm. If the vehicle is not started, or the door is not unlocked by pressing K on the remote key during the 10-second pre-alarm, the alarm will be activated. The alarm will also be activated if a passenger door or the hood is opened without first disarming the system. When the alarm is activated, the turn signals flash and the horn sounds for about 30 seconds. The alarm system will then re-arm to monitor for the next unauthorized event.
Disarming the Alarm System
To disarm the alarm system or turn off the alarm if it has been activated:
- Press K on the remote key.
- Start the vehicle.
To avoid setting off the alarm by mistake:
- Lock the vehicle after all occupants have exited.
- Always unlock a door with the remote key.
Unlocking the driver door with the key will not disarm the system or turn off the alarm.
How to Detect a Tamper Condition
If K is pressed on the remote key and the horn chirps three times, an alarm occurs while the alarm system is armed. If the alarm has been activated, a message will appear on the DIC.
Steering Column Lock
If equipped, the steering column lock is a theft-deterrent device. This feature locks the steering column when the vehicle is turned off and the driver door is opened, or when the driver door is opened and then the vehicle is turned off. The steering column unlocks when the vehicle is turned on.
The Driver Information Center (DIC) may display one of these messages:
- A message to service the steering column lock indicates that an issue has been detected with the column lock feature and the vehicle should be serviced.
- A message that the steering column is locked indicates that the engine is running, but the steering column is still locked. It is normal for the column to be locked during a remote start, but the column should unlock after the brake pedal is pressed and the vehicle is started. No message will display during a remote start.
- A message that the steering wheel must be turned and the vehicle must be started again indicates that the column lock mechanism is bound, the column locking device was unable to unlock the steering column, and the vehicle did not start. If this happens, immediately turn the steering wheel from side to side to unbind the column lock. If this does not unlock the steering column, turn the vehicle off and open the driver door to reset the system. Then turn the vehicle on and immediately turn the steering wheel side to side for about 15 seconds. In some cases, it may take significant force to unbind the column.
To keep the steering column from binding, straighten the front wheels before turning off the vehicle.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system. The system does not have to be manually armed or disarmed. The vehicle is automatically immobilized when the vehicle is turned off. The system is automatically disarmed when the ignition is turned from off to on. The security light, in the instrument cluster, comes on if there is a problem with arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system. The system has one or more remote keys matched to an immobilizer control unit in your vehicle. Only a correctly matched remote key will start the vehicle. If the remote key is ever damaged, you may not be able to start your vehicle. When trying to start the vehicle, the security light may come on briefly when the ignition is turned on. If the engine does not start and the security light stays on, there is a problem with the system. Turn the ignition off and try again. If the vehicle will not change ignition modes (accessory mode, on, off), and the remote key appears to be undamaged, try another remote key. Or, you may try placing the remote key in the remote key pocket located in the center console. If the ignition mode will not change with the other remote key or with the remote key in the remote key pocket, your vehicle needs service. If the ignition does change modes, the first remote key may be faulty. See your dealer who can service the theft-deterrent system and have a new remote key programmed to the vehicle. It is possible for the immobilizer system to learn new or replacement remote keys. Upto eight remote keys can be programmed for the vehicle. Do not leave the remote key or device that disarms or deactivates the vehicle theft system in the vehicle.
Exterior Mirrors
Convex Mirrors
Warning
A convex mirror can make things, like other vehicles, look farther away than they really are. If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on the right. Check the inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.
Standard Mirrors
If equipped, the passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex mirror surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver seat.
Trailer-Tow Mirrors
The upper portion of both the driver and passenger mirrors is flat. The lower portion of both the driver and passenger mirrors is convex. A convex mirror surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver seat. The lower portion is adjusted manually.
Manual Mirrors
If equipped, adjust manual mirrors by moving the mirror up and down or left to right to see a little of the side of the vehicle and to have a clear view behind the vehicle. Using hood-mounted air deflectors and add-on convex mirror attachments could decrease mirror performance.
Resetting the Power Folding Mirrors
Reset the power folding mirrors if:
- The mirrors are accidentally obstructed while folding.
- The mirrors are accidentally manually folded/unfolded.
- The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded position.
- The mirrors vibrate at normal driving speeds.
Fold and unfold the mirrors one time using the mirror controls to reset them to their normal position. A noise may be heard during the resetting of the power folding mirrors. This sound is normal after a manual folding operation.
Automatic Dimming Mirror
If equipped, the driver outside mirror automatically adjusts for the glare of the headlamps from behind. This feature comes on when the vehicle is started.
Blind Spot Mirrors
If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle’s blind zone.
