seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the passengers from being

accident. It also helps prevent the
doors from being opened unintention-
ally.

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, the closing door may cause
an unexpected serious injury.
When the vehicle is stopped on a
slope, 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.

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 half−opened and fully −
opened positions while it is opening, the
door will stop at that position.
If the jam protection function operates
continuously at the closing operation more
than 2 times, the sliding door will be
stopped at that position and the power
sliding door system will be canceled. 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 in and out of
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.
The jam protection function may not work
if something gets caught just before the
sliding door is fully closed.
If the sliding door receives a strong im-
pact, this function may operate even if
nothing is caught.
CAUTION
The 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.
Before you close the power sliding
door, always make sure there is no-
body around it. Also make sure the
heads, hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in a closing door, it could
result in a serious injury. When
anyone closes the power sliding
door, make sure he or she operates
the 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.
