Vehicles with power door lock sys-
tem—The sliding doors will be locked si-
multaneously when either front door or the
back door is locked with the power door
lock switch or key. If you lock either front
door or the back door with the power door
lock switch or key while the sliding door
is open, the sliding door will be locked
after it is closed. (For instructions, see
“Front doors” or “Back door” in this sec-
tion.)
Closing the sliding door with the lock knob
in the lock position will also lock the slid-
ing door. Be careful not to lock your keys
in the vehicle.
CLOSING FROM INSIDE
To close the fully−opened sliding door,
push the lock release button and then
close the door.
CAUTION
When closing the sliding door, con-
firm safety of the area around.
Keep the heads, hands and other
parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the sliding door. Other-
wise, they will be possibly caught
and pinched by the closing door
causing an unexpected serious inju-
ry.
When the vehicle is stopped on a
gradient, the door will slide faster
when opening or closing, so be es-
pecially careful that the passengers
do not get hit or pinched by the
door.
When stopping on a downward
slope, open the door fully while
passengers are getting on or off.
Do not pull the outside handle or
push the lock release button while
the door is open as the door could
suddenly close by itself causing in-
jury.
NOTICE
Do not close the sliding door by ap-
plying the brakes. Doing so could
cause the door to be damaged.

OPEN POWER SLIDING DOOR
WARNING LIGHT AND BUZZER
This light on the instrument panel comes
on if the power sliding door is not com-
pletely closed with the ignition key in the
“ON” position. (See “Service reminder indi-
cators and warning buzzers” in Section
1−5.)If you forcibly close the power sliding door
by hand when the ignition key is in the
“ON” position, the open power sliding door
warning light may stay on. In this case,
try opening and closing the power sliding
door again by hand slowly, or use one of
the “DOOR L”, “DOOR R” and “PWR
DOOR” switches inside the vehicle or
“POWER DOOR”, “D−PWR DOOR” and
“P−PWR DOOR” switches of the wireless
remote control transmitter.
If you shift out of “P” when the power
sliding door is opened or in the process
of closing with the power sliding door sys-
tem on, a buzzer will sound and the open
power sliding door warning light will flash.
This is a warning that the sliding door is
not completely closed.JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION
If anything with sufficient resistance ob-
structs the power sliding door while it is
closing or opening, the sliding door will
automatically reverse to the opposite di-
rection. However, if the power sliding door
is between the fully−closed and half−
opened positions while it is opening, the
door will stop at that position.
Before operating the power sliding door,
make sure there is nobody near the slid-
ing door. Make sure the sliding door stops
at the fully−opened position, and then al-
low the passengers to get on and off the
vehicle.

The resistance must be as strong as the
force of the moving door, or stronger. As
the sliding door approaches the fully−
closed or fully−opened position, its moving
force increases significantly.
If the sliding door receives a strong im-
pact, this function may work even if noth-
ing is caught.
CAUTION
Power sliding door could injure
people if they are caught in the door
path. When using the power sliding
door, observe the following:
Never try jamming any part of your
body to make the jam protection
function work intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the sliding door is fully
closed.
You must always make sure the
heads, hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are away
from the sliding door. If someone’s
neck, head or hand gets caught in
a closing sliding door, it could re-
sult in a serious injury. When any-
one closes the power sliding door,
make sure he/she operates the slid-
ing door safely.
NOTICE
Objects caught in the path of the slid-
ing door may be damaged. Make sure
there is nothing in the doorway be-
fore closing the sliding door.CAUTION
When the vehicle is stopped on a
downward slope of a steep grade
(17% or more), the sliding door may
not stay in the fully−opened position
and could suddenly close by itself,
possibly resulting a personal injury.
Making sure the sliding door does not
close abruptly, turn on the power
sliding door system. Then the sliding
door will operate under the control of
the electric power.
