If the auxiliary battery is disconnected
or run down, the back door will be auto-
matically locked and the back door system
may not work after you reconnect, replace
or recharge the auxiliary battery. In any of
these cases, normalize the back door sys-
tem by following procedure.

The windows can be operated with the
switch on each door.
The power windows work when the “IG−
ON” mode is enabled.
Key off operation : If both front doors are
closed, they work for 45 seconds even
after the hybrid system is stopped. They
stop working when either front door is
opened.

Jam protection function: If something
gets caught between the window and win-
dow frame during automatic closing opera-
tion or key off closing operation, the win-

If the window receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught. If the auxiliary battery is disc
onnected
or run down, the power window may not

function intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the window is fully
closed.

its clip before closing the hood. Clos-
ing the hood with the support rod
inserted into the slot could cause the
hood to bend.

2. Set the system as described above. The doors should be locked with the
mechanical key, wireless remote control
transmitter or smart function. Be sure
to wait until the indicator light goes off
or starts flashing.
3. Unlock any door from the inside. The system s hould activate the alarm.
4. Stop the alarm as described above.

as far as the seatbacks. See “Cargo and
luggage” on page 228 for precautions
when loading luggage.

BEFORE RETURNING REAR SEAT
Make sure the shoulder belt pass
through the guide when returning the
seatback up.
If the shoulder belt on the rear right seat
is off the guide, the air vent for cooling
the hybrid vehicle battery may be blocked
by the belt. If the hybrid vehicle battery
cannot be cooled, the output performance
is limited, reducing the driving perfor-
mance.

protection for the driver, front passen-
ger and rear outside passengers in
addition to the primary safety protec-
tion provided by the seat belts.In response to a severe side impact, the
SRS side airbags and curtain shield air-
bags work with the seat belts to help
reduce injury by inflating. The SRS side
airbags help reduce injuries mainly to the
driver ’s or front passenger ’s chest and the
SRS curtain shield airbags help reduce
injuries mainly to the driver’s, front pas-
senger ’s or rear outside passenger ’s head.
