CAUTION
■
Back door closer (if equipped)
●
Use caution when using the back door closer as it still operates when the
power back door system is canceled.
■
Power back door (if equipped)
Observe the following precautions when operating the power back door.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
●
Check 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.
● 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.
●
If the operating conditions of the power back door are no longer met, a
buzzer may sound and the back door may stop opening or closing. The
back door then has to be operated manually. Take extra care in this situa-
tion, as the back door may move abruptly.
●
On an incline, the back door may fall after it opens automatically. Make
sure the back door is fully open and secure.
● In the event that the back door is left
slightly open, the back door closer will
automatically close it to the fully closed
position. It takes several seconds
before the back door closer begins to
operate. Be careful not to catch fingers
or anything else in the back door, as
this may cause bone fractures or other
serious injuries.
