■Operating the back door
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the back door before opening it.
Failure to do so may cause the back door to suddenly shut again after it is opened.
●When opening or closing the back door, thoroughly check to make sure the sur-
rounding area is safe.
●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.
●Use caution when opening or closing the ba ck door in windy weather as it may move
abruptly in strong wind.
●Do not pull on the back door damper st ay (vehicles without a power back door)
( P. 138) or back door spindle (vehicles with a power back door) ( P. 1 3 9 ) t o
close the back door, and do not hang on t he back door damper stay (vehicles with-
out a power back door) or back door spin dle (vehicles with a power back door).
Doing so may cause hands to be caught or the back door damper stay (vehicles
without a power back door) or back d oor spindle (vehicles with a power back
door) to break, causing an accident.
●If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy object is attached to the back door, it may sud-
denly shut closed again after being opened, causing someone’s hands, head or neck
to be caught and injured. Wh en installing an accessory part to the back door, using a
genuine Lexus part is recommended.
●Vehicles without a power back door: The
back door may suddenly 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
secured before using the luggage compart-
ment.
●Vehicles with a 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 lu ggage compartment.
●When closing the back door, take extra care
to prevent your fingers, etc., from being
caught.
●When closing the back door, make sure to
press it lightly on its ou ter surface. If the back
door handle is used to fully close the back
door, it may result in hands or arms being
caught.
