WARNING
■ Power back door
Observe the following precautions
when operating the power back
door.
Failure to do so may cause death
or serious injury.
● Check the safety of the sur-
rounding area to make sure
there are no obstacles or any-
thing that could cause any of
your belongings to get caught.
● If anyone is in the vicinity, make
sure they are safe and let them
know that the back door is
about to open or close.
● If the power back door system is
turned off while the back door is
operating automatically, the
automatic operation is stopped.
The back door then has to be
operated manually. Take extra
care when on an incline, as the
back door may open or close
unexpectedly.
● If the operating conditions of the
power back door are no longer
met, a buzzer may sound and
the back door may stop opening
or closing. The back door then
has to be operated manually.
Take extra care when on an
incline, as the back door may
open or close abruptly.
● On an incline, the back door
may suddenly shut after it
opens. Make sure the back door
is fully open and secure.
● In the following situations, the
power back door may detect an
abnormality and automatic
operation may be stopped. In
this case, the back door has to
be operated manually. Take
extra care when on an incline,
as the back door may open or
close abruptly.
• When the back door contacts an
obstacle
• When the 12-volt battery volt-
age suddenly drops, such as
when the power switch is turned
to ON or the hybrid system is
started during automatic opera-
tion
● If a bicycle carrier or similar
heavy object is attached to the
back door, the power back door
may not operate, causing itself
to malfunction, or the back door
may suddenly shut again after
being opened, causing some-
one’s hands, head or neck to be
caught and injured. When
installing an accessory part to
the back door, using a genuine
Toyota part is recommended.
■ Jam protection function
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause death
or serious injury.
● Never use any part of your body
to intentionally activate the jam
protection function.
● The jam protection function may
not work if something gets
caught just before the back door
fully closes. Be careful not to
catch fingers or anything else.
● The jam protection function may
not work depending on the
shape of the object that is
caught. Be careful not to catch
fingers or anything else.
