PRE-DRIVING OPERATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Side Access Panel (Extended Cab Model)
CAUTION
• Before opening the side access panel, check that the passenger in the front
seat has removed his/her seat belt. If the side access panel is opened while the
seat belt is worn, the seat belt will lock and it will not be possible to pull it out.
The passenger in the front seat may become trapped and could be injured.
• Exercise caution when opening or closing doors, as strong winds or steep
slopes may cause doors to open or close suddenly.
• When operating the inside door handle on the side access panel, be careful
not to get your hand caught in the gap between the inside door handle and
the inside door handle cover. If this happens, your hands or fingers could be
injured.
• Because it will not be possible to close the front door securely when the side
access panel is half-open, it may open while the vehicle is in motion.
ADVICE
• Do not open or close the side access panel while the front door is not
completely open. Otherwise, the side access panel may contact the front door
and could be damaged.
• Do not open or close the front door and side access panel at the same time.
Otherwise, the side access panel may contact the front door and could be
damaged.
• After closing the front door, do not close the side access panel. Otherwise, the
side access panel may contact the front door and could be damaged. Always
close the front door after first closing the side access panel.
NOTE
• The side access panel cannot be opened when the front door is closed.
