Doors must only be operated when the vehicle is stationary.For your safety and that of your passengers, as well as for correct operation of the doors, you are strongly advised not to drive with a door open.Always check that it is safe to operate the door and in particular, be sure not to leave children or animals near the door controls without supervision.The audible warning, the lighting of the "door open" warning lamp and the message on the screen are there to remind you. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer if
you want to deactivate this warning.Lock the vehicle when you use an automatic car wash.
WARNI NG
Before opening or closing and while moving doors, ensure that no person, animal or object is in the door frame or any other position that would block the desired movement, inside or outside the vehicle.If this advice is not followed, injuries or damage may occur if any part of a person or an object is trapped or caught.Electrical door opening is disabled at speeds above 2 mph (3 km/h):– However, if the vehicle started moving while the doors were open, the speed must be reduced below 19 mph (30 km/h) before they can be closed.– Any attempt to open a door electrically using the interior handle while driving results in it only being possible to open the door manually.– This situation is accompanied by the audible warning, the lighting of the "door open" warning lamp and the message on the
screen. To release the door and be able to operate it again, it is necessary to stop the vehicle.
WARNI NG
Take care not to block the guide space on the floor so that the door can slide correctly.For safety and functional reasons, do not drive with the sliding side door open.

Safety anti-pinch
If your vehicle is fitted with the safety anti-pinch function, when the window rises and meets an obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.In the event of unwanted opening of the window on closing, press the control until the window opens completely. Within 4 seconds, pull the control until the window closes.The safety anti-pinch does not operate while doing this.
Reinitialising the electric
windows
After reconnecting the battery, or in the event of abnormal window movement, the anti-pinch function must be reinitialised.The anti-pinch function is disabled during the following sequence of operations.For each window:► Lower the window fully, then raise it; it will rise in steps of a few centimetres each time the control is pressed. Repeat the operation until the
window is fully closed.► Continue to pull the control for at least one second after the window reaches the closed position.

If an electric window meets an obstacle during operation, the movement of the window must be reversed. To do this, press the relevant switch.When the driver operates the passenger electric window switch, it is important to ensure that nothing can prevent the window from closing properly.Pay particular attention to children when operating windows.
