WARNING
■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 sud- denly shut again after it is opened.
●When opening or closing the back door, thoroughly check to make sure the surrounding 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 clos-ing the back door in windy weather as it may move abruptly in strong
wind.
●Vehicles without power back door:
The back door may suddenly shut if it is not opened fully. It is more diffi-cult to open or close the back door
on an incline than on a level sur- face, so beware of the back door unexpectedly opening or closing by
itself. Make sure that the back door is fully open and secure before using the luggage compartment.
●Vehicles with 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 luggage
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 outer surface. If the back door handle is
used to fully close the back door, it may result in hands or arms being caught.
●Do not pull on the back door damper stay (vehicles without
power back door) ( P.192) or back door spindle (vehicles with power back door) ( P.200) to close the
back door, and do not hang on the back door damper stay (vehicles without power back door) or back
door spindle (vehicles with power back door).Doing so may cause hands to be
caught or the back door damper stay (vehicles without power back door) or back door spindle (vehicles
with power back door) to break, causing an accident.
