Do not pull on the back door damper stay to close the back door, and do not

causing an accident.●
If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy object is attached to the back door, it may sud-
denly shut again after being opened, caus ing someone’s hands, head or neck to
be caught and injured. When installing an accessory part to the back door, using
a genuine Lexus part is recommended. ●
The back door may suddenly shut if it is not

close the back door on an incline than on a
level surface, so beware of the back door
unexpectedly opening or closing by itself.
Make sure that the back door is fully open
and secure before using the luggage com-
partment. ●

care to prevent your fingers etc. from being
caught. ●
