WARNING
Vehicles without power back
door: The back door may sud-
denly shut if it is not opened
fully. It is more difficult to open
or close the back door on an
incline than on a level surface,
so beware of the back door
unexpectedly opening or closing
by itself. Make sure that the
back door is fully open and
secure before using the luggage
compartment.
Vehicles with power back door:
The back door may suddenly
shut if it is not opened fully,
while on a steep incline. Make
sure that the back door is
secured before using the lug-
gage compartment.
When closing the back door,
take extra care to prevent your
fingers, etc. from being caught.
Vehicles without power back
door: When closing the back
door, make sure to press it
lightly on its outer surface. If the
back door handle is used to fully
close the back door, it may
result in hands or arms being
caught.
Do not pull on the back door
damper stay (vehicles without
power back door) (P.118) or
back door spindle (vehicles with
power back door) (P.125) to
close the back door, and do not
hang on the back door damper
stay (vehicles without power
back door) or back door spindle
(vehicles with power back door).
Doing so may cause hands to
be caught or the back door
damper stay (vehicles without
power back door) or back door
spindle (vehicles with power
back door) to break, causing an
accident.
Vehicles without power back
door: If a bicycle carrier or simi-
lar heavy object is attached to
the back door, it may suddenly
shut again after being opened,
causing someone’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.
