OPERATING WITH THE WIRELESS
REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER
To open or close the door, push and
hold the “
” switch on the wireless
remote control transmitter about one
second. (Only when the power back
door system is on.) For details, see
“Wireless remote control” on page 14
in this Section.
ASSISTS CLOSING BY HAND
When the power back door system is on
(the “BACK DOOR OFF” switch is pushed
out), if you move the back door about
10—15 cm (4—6 in.) from its fully −opened
position, the back door will automatically
and completely close.
When the power back door system is off,
the back door can be closed manually.
The assisting function when closing the
back door can be disabled and the assist-
ing function when opening the back door
can be added. For details, contact your
Toyota dealer.
JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION
If anything with sufficient resistance ob-
structs the power back door while it is
closing or opening, the back door will au-
tomatically reverse to the opposite direc-
tion.
If the jam protection function operates
continuously at the closing operation more
than 2 times, the back door will be
stopped at that position. Before operating the power back door,
make sure there is nobody near the back
door.
The resistance must be as strong as the
force of the moving door, or stronger. As
the back 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
back door is fully closed.
If the back door receives a strong impact,
this function may operate even if nothing
is caught.

CAUTION
The power back door could injure
people if they are caught in the door
path. When using the power back
door, observe the following:
Never try jamming any part of your
body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally, as it could re-
sult in death or serious injury.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the sliding door is fully
closed.
Before you close the power back
door, always make sure there is no-
body around it. If someone’s neck,
head or hands get caught in a clos-
ing door, it could result in death or
serious injury. When anyone closes
the power back door, make sure he
or she operates the door safely.

back door may be damaged. Make
sure there is nothing in the doorway
