The resistance must be as strong as the
force of the moving door, or stronger. As
the sliding door approaches the fully–

force increases significantly.

ing is caught.

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.
