CAUTION
■ Caution while driving
Keep the trunk lid closed.
This not only keeps personal belongings from being thrown out, but also prevents
exhaust gases from entering the vehicle.
■ When children are in the vehicle
● Never leave children unattended in the vehicle as they may lock themselves in the
vehicle or trunk, which could cause the child to overheat or suffocate, resulting in
death or serious injury.
● Do not allow a child to open or close the trunk lid. Doing so may cause the trunk
lid to operate unexpectedly and part of the child's body may become caught.
■ Trunk easy closer
When the trunk lid is not completely closed, the trunk easy closer will automatically
close it. Be careful not to catch fingers or anything else in the trunk lid. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury.
■ Power trunk lid
● When the power trunk lid is operating, check the safety of the surrounding area
and take extra care to prevent your fingers etc. from being caught in the trunk lid.
Also pay attention to your personal belongings, such as bags or ties.
● Do not attach any accessories other than Lexus genuine parts to the trunk lid.
Doing so may prevent the power trunk lid from operating automatically, resulting
in a malfunction. It may also cause the trunk lid to fall down after it has fully
opened, resulting in serious injury.
● Remove any heavy loads, such as snow, on the trunk lid before opening it.
Failure to do so may cause the trunk lid to fall down due to the load after it opens.
● If any abnormality is detected while the power trunk lid is operating, such as when
the trunk lid contacts an obstacle, the automatic operation may stop and change
to manual operation. Before operating the power trunk lid, make sure that there
are no obstacles.
■ Jam protection function
● Never use any part of your body to intentionally activate the jam protection func-
tion.
● The jam protection function may not work if something gets caught just before
the trunk lid fully closes.
