3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
Q 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.
Q To prevent damage to the power
back door
O 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.
O Do not apply excessive force to the
back door while the power back door
is operating.
O 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.
Q 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. (oP.143)
Before leaving the vehicle, make sure
that the operational signals have oper-
ated and that all of the doors are locked.
*
: These settings must be customized at
your Lexus dealer.

while near objects that may move and
contact the right lower part of the rear

uation, move the vehicle from the cur-
rent position and then check if the kick
