Automatic stop and reversal
If the power opening or closing is
blocked by an object or part of the
body, the power sliding door and power
tailgate will detect the resistance,
chime 3 times, and then either stop or
move to the full open position.
However, if the resistance is weak
such as an object that is thin or soft,
or the door is near latched position,
the automatic stop and reversal may
not detect the resistance and closing
operation will continue. Also, if the
power sliding door or power tailgate
is forced by strong impact, the auto-
matic stop and reversal may operate.
If the automatic stop and reversal
feature operates continuously more
than twice during one opening or
closing operation, the power sliding
door or power tailgate may stop at
that position. At this time, close the
doors manually and operate the door
automatically again.
