Thank you for purchasing the Clearview Power Boards. At Clearview Accessories our customers
are always at the forefront of our innovations, our Power Boards will revolutionise your travel
experience.
Clearview Power Boards are triggered by the vehicle’s door sensor, so when the door opens, they
drop to a convenient stepping height and when the door closes, they retract. With 300kg load
capacity, safety cut off feature and IP68 rating on the motors, accessing your vehicle is as easy as
one step up.
