REAR DOOR CHILDPROTECTORS
Move the lock lever to the “LOCK”
position as shown on the label.
When the child −protector is locked, you
cannot open the rear door by the inside
door handle. We recommend using this
feature whenever small children are in the
vehicle.
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle in an accident. It also helps pre-
vent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.

back window wiper, washer and defogger
will not work. (See “Back window wiper
and washer” on page 141 and “Back
window and outside rear view mirror
defoggers” on page 142 in Section 1−5.) If the battery is disconnected or run
down,
the power back window may not
operate automatically and the jam protec-
tion function will not function correctly af-
ter you reconnect, replace or recharge the

working when either front door is opened.
Jam protection function: During automat-
ic closing operation or key off closing op-
eration, the window stops and opens half
way if something gets caught between the
window and window frame.
If the window receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught.

body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally, as it could re-
sult in death or serious injury.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
