The back door starts to close automati-
cally when leaving the back door. Check
the safety of the surrounding area to
make sure there are no obstacles or any-
thing that could cause any of your
belongings to get caught.
■ Back door spindles
The back door is equipped with spindles
that hold the back door in place.
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause damage to
the back door spindle, resulting in mal-
function.
● Do not attach any foreign objects,
such as stickers, plastic sheets, or
adhesives to the spindle rod.
● Do not attach any accessories other
than genuine Lexus parts to the back
door.
● Do not place your hand on the spindle
or apply lateral forces to it.
■ To prevent back door closer malfunc-
tion
Do not apply excessive force to the back
door while the back door closer is oper-
ating. Applying excessive force may
cause the back door closer to malfunc-
tion.
■ To prevent damage to the power
back door
● Make sure that there is no ice between
the back door and frame that would
prevent movement of the back door.
Operating the power back door when
excessive load is present on the back
door may cause a malfunction.
● Do not apply excessive force to the
back door while the power back door
is operating.
● Take care not to damage the sensors
(installed on the right and left edges of
the power back door) with a knife or
other sharp object. If the sensor is dis-
connected, the power back door will
not close automatically.
■ Close & lock function
When closing the power back door
using the close & lock function, a differ-
ent buzzer than the normal one will
sound before the operation begins.
To check that the operation has started
correctly, check that a different buzzer
than the normal one has sounded.
Additionally, when the power back door
is fully closed and locked, operation sig-
nals will indicate that all of the doors have
been locked. (P.101)
Before leaving the vehicle, make sure
that the operational signals have oper-
ated and that all of the doors are locked.
■ Hands Free Power Back Door pre-
cautions (if equipped)
The kick sensor is located behind the
right lower part of the rear bumper.
