WARNING
■
Sliding door closer (if equipped)
●
Use caution when using the sliding door closer. The sliding door closer
operates even when the power sliding door system is canceled.
■ Power sliding doors (vehicles with power sliding doors)
Observe the following precautions when the power sliding door system is
on.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
● When using the door handle to open or close the power sliding door,
remove your hand from the door handle immediately after starting power
sliding door operation. If you leave your hand on the door handle during
operation, your hand, fingers, wrist etc. may be subjected to an excessive
amount of force.
●
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 sliding door is about to open or close.
● If the power sliding door system is turned off with the main switch while the
sliding door is operating automatically, the automatic operation is stopped.
The sliding door then has to be operated manually. Take extra care when
on an incline, as the sliding door may open or close unexpectedly.
●
If the operating conditions of the power sliding door are no longer met, a
buzzer may sound and the sliding door may stop opening or closing. The
sliding door then has to be operated manually. Take extra care when on an
incline, as the sliding door may open or close abruptly.
●
In the event that the sliding door is left
slightly open, the sliding door closer will
automatically close it to the fully closed
position. It takes several seconds
before the sliding door closer begins to
operate. Be careful not to catch fingers
or anything else in the sliding door, as
this may cause bone fractures or other
serious injuries.
