Jam protection function
If anything with sufficient resistance obstructs the power back
door while it is closing or opening, the back door will
automatically reverse to the opposite direction.
If the jam protection function operates continuously at the
closing operation more than 2 times, the back door will be
stopped at that position.
Before operating the power back door, make sure there is
nobody near the back door.
The resistance must be as strong as the force of the moving
door, or stronger. As the back door approaches the
fully−closed or fully−opened position, its moving force
increases significantly.
If the back door receives a strong impact, this function may
operate even if nothing is caught.
Falling down protection function
When you open the back door with the switch or the wireless
remote control, if some loads such as snow on the back door
make the back door fall down, the back door will automatically
close. The beeps sound intermittently while closing the back
door.
Before opening the power back door, make sure there is no
load on the back door.
If you close the back door by hand right after the back door
opening, this function may work even there is no load on the
back door.
