1-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
● In the following situations, the power back door may detect an abnormality and
automatic operation may be stopped. In this case, the back door has to be oper-
ated manually. Take extra care in this situation, as the stopped back door may sud-
denly fall, causing an accident.
• When the back door contacts an obstacle
• When the battery voltage suddenly drops, such as when the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode or the engine is
started during automatic operation
● Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the back door.
The power back door may not operate, causing itself to malfunction, or the back
door may fall closed again after it is opened.
● In cases such as when replacing tires, make sure to turn off the power back door
main switch. Failure to do so may cause the back door to operate unintentionally
if the power back door switch is accidentally touched, resulting in hands and fin-
gers being caught and injured.
■ Jam protection function
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
● Be careful while the jam protection function is operating. Being hit by the back
door may result in an injury.
● If anything obstructs the power back door while it is closing, the jam protection
function will cause the back door to automatically operate in the opposite direc-
tion. However, be careful not to jam body parts in the doorframe, as an injury may
result.
● 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 back door fully closes. Be careful not to catch fingers or anything else.
● The sensors located on the right and left sides of the power back door detect
obstructions and prevent them from becoming jammed in the door. Some objects
may not be detected depending on their shape or how they are jammed. Be care-
ful not to get fingers or other body parts caught in the back door while it is oper-
ating as this may result in a serious injury.
