■ Back door spindles
The power back door is equipped with spindles that hold the power back door in place.
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause damage to the back door spindle, resulting in malfunction.
■ To prevent back door closer malfunction
● Do not apply excessive force to the power back door while the back door closer is
operating. Applying excessive force may cause the back door closer to malfunction.
● If the power back door is opened and closed repeatedly in a short amount of time, the
back door closer may stop operating. In this case, manually open the power back
door once and wait for a while before attempting to close it again.
■ To prevent malfunction of the power back door
● Make sure that there is no ice between the power back door and frame that would
prevent movement of the power back door. Operating the power back door when
excessive load is present on the power back door may cause a malfunction.
● Do not apply excessive force to the power 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 (P. 138) with a knife or other sharp object. If a sensor is disconnected,
the power back door will not close automatically.
● 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 power back door.
● Do not place your hand on the spindle or
apply lateral forces to it.
