CAUTION
Using the trunk
■
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in serious
injury.
Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the trunk lid before opening
●
it. Failure to do so may cause the trunk lid to fall closed again after it is opened.
When opening or closing the trunk lid, thoroughly check to make sure the sur-
●
rounding area is safe.
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that the
●
trunk is about to open or close.
Use caution when opening or closing the trunk lid in windy weather as it may
●
move abruptly in strong wind.
The trunk lid may fall if it is not opened fully.
●
It is more difficult to open or close the trunk
lid on an incline than on a level surface, so
beware of the trunk lid unexpectedly open-
ing or closing by itself. Make sure that the
trunk lid is fully open and secure before
using the trunk.
When closing the trunk lid, take extra care
●
to prevent your fingers etc. from being
caught.
When closing the trunk lid, make sure to
●
press it lightly on its outer surface. If the
trunk handle is used to fully close the trunk
lid, it may result in hands or arms being
caught.
Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk lid.
●
Such additional weight on the trunk lid may cause the lid to fall closed again after
it is opened.
