WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.

luggage in the trunk may be thrown

ries.

Before driving
WARNING
ORemove any heavy loads, such as
snow and ice, from the trunk lid before
opening it. Failure to do so may cause
the trunk lid to suddenly shut again
after it is opened.
OWhen opening or closing the trunk lid,
thoroughly check to make sure the
surrounding area is safe.
OIf anyone is in the vicinity, make sure
they are safe and let them know that
the trunk is about to open or close.
OUse caution when opening or closing
the trunk lid in windy weather as it may
move abruptly in strong wind.
OVehicles without power trunk lid: The
trunk lid may suddenly shut if it is not
opened fully. It is more difficult to open
or close the trunk lid on an incline than
on a level surface, so beware of the
trunk lid unexpect edly opening or
closing by itself. Make sure that the
trunk lid is fully open and secure
before using the trunk.
OWhen closing the trunk lid, take extra
care to prevent your fingers etc. from
being caught.
OVehicles without power trunk lid:
When closing the trunk lid, make sure
to press it lightly on its outer surface. If
the trunk grip is used to fully close the
trunk lid, it may result in hands or arms
being caught.
ODo not attach any accessories other
than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk
lid. Such additional weight on the trunk
lid may cause the lid to suddenly shut
again after it is opened.
QTrunk easy closer (vehicles with
power trunk lid)
In the event that the trunk lid is left slightly
open, the trunk easy closer will automati-
cally close it to the fully closed position. It
takes several second s before the trunk
easy closer begins to operate. Be careful
not to catch fingers or anything else in
the trunk lid, as this may cause bone frac-
tures or other serious injuries.
QPower trunk lid (if equipped)
Observe the following precautions when
operating the power trunk lid.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
OCheck the safety of the surrounding
area to make sure there are no obsta-
cles or anything that could cause any
of your belongings to get caught.
OIf anyone is in the vicinity, make sure
they are safe and let them know that
the trunk is about to open or close.
OIf the trunk closer switch is pressed
while the trunk lid is opening during
automatic operation, the trunk lid
stops opening. Take extra care when
on an incline, as the trunk lid may open
or close suddenly.
