Back door closer

●

In the event that the back door

is left slightly open, the back

door closer will automatically

close it to the fully closed posi-

tion. It takes several seconds

before the back door closer

begins to operate. Be careful

not to catch fingers or anything

else in the back door, as this

may cause bone fractures or

other serious injuries.

Power back door

Observe the following precautions

when operating the power back

door.

Failure to do so may cause death

or serious injury.

●

Check the safety of the sur-

rounding area to make sure

there are no obstacles or any-

thing that could cause any of

your belongings to get caught.

●

If anyone is in the vicinity, make

sure they are safe and let them

know that the back door is

about to open or close.

●

If the power back door system is

disabled while the back door is

operating automatically, the

automatic operation is stopped.

The back door then has to be

operated manually. Take extra

care when on an incline, as the

back door may open or close

unexpectedly.

●

If the operating conditions of the

power back door are no longer

met, a buzzer may sound and

the back door may stop opening

or closing. The back door then

has to be operated manually.

ates properly:

●

Keep the lower center part of

the rear bumper clean at all

times.

If the lower center part of the

rear bumper is dirty or covered

with snow or mud, the kick sen-

sor may not operate. In this situ-

ation, clean off the dirt or snow,

move the vehicle from the cur-

rent position and then check if

the kick sensor operates.

If it does not operate, have the

vehicle inspected by your

Toyota dealer.

●

wave reception conditions, it may

be detected by the antenna out-

side the cabin and the door will

become lockable from the outside,

possibly trapping the electronic

control to unlock the doors.)

●

Touching the door lock sensor

while wearing gloves may delay or

prevent lock operation. Remove

the gloves and touch the lock sen-

sor again.

●

When the lock operation is per-

formed using the lock sensor, rec-

ognition signals will be shown up

to two consecutive times. After

this, no recognition signals will be

given.

●

If the door handle becomes wet

while the electronic key is within

the effective range, the door may

lock and unlock repeatedly. In that

case, follow the following correc-

tion procedures to wash the vehi-

cle:

• Place the electronic key in a loca-

tion 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from

the vehicle. (Take care to ensure

that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-

saving mode to disable the smart

key system. (

P.166)

●

If the electronic key is inside the

vehicle and a door handle

becomes wet during a car wash, a

message may be shown on the

multi-information display and a

buzzer will sound outside the vehi-

cle. To turn off the alarm, lock all

the doors.

●

The lock sensor may not work

properly if it comes into contact

with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean

the lock sensor and attempt to

operate it again, or use the lock

sensor on the lower part of the

door handle.

●

A sudden approach to the effec-

tive range or door handle may pre-

vent the doors from being

unlocked. In this case, return the

door handle to the original position

and check that the doors unlock

before pulling the door handle

again.

●

If there is another electronic key in

the detection area, it may take

slightly longer to unlock the doors

after the door handle is gripped.

■

When the vehicle is not driven

for extended periods

●

Vehicles with entry function: To

prevent theft of the vehicle, do not

leave the electronic key within 6 ft.

(2 m) of the vehicle.

●

People with implantable car-

resynchronization therapy-

pacemakers or implantable car-

dioverter defibrillators should

maintain a reasonable distance

between themselves and the

smart key system antennas.

(

The radio waves may affect the

operation of such devices. If

necessary, the entry function

can be disabled. Ask your

Toyota dealer for details, such

as the frequency of radio waves

and timing of the emitted radio

waves. Then, consult your doc-

tor to see if you should disable

the entry function.

●

Users of any electrical medical

device other than implantable

cardiac pacemakers, cardiac

resynchronization therapy-

pacemakers or implantable car-

dioverter defibrillators should

consult the manufacturer of the

device for information about its

operation under the influence of

radio waves.

Radio waves could have unex-

■

Seat adjustment

●

To reduce the risk of sliding

under the lap belt during a colli-

If the seat is too reclined, the lap

belt may slide past the hips and

apply restraint forces directly to

the abdomen, or your neck may

contact the shoulder belt,

increasing the risk of death or

serious injury in the event of an

accident.

Adjustments should not be

made while driving as the seat

may unexpectedly move and

cause the driver to lose control

Be careful that the seat does

not hit passengers or luggage.

●

To reduce the risk of sliding

under the lap belt during a colli-

sion, do not recline the seat

more than necessary. If the seat

is reclined too far, the lap belt

Do not use the ottoman feature

when the vehicle is in motion.

The ottoman feature should

only be used when the vehicle

is stationary. If the ottoman fea-

ture is in use during an accident
