Jam Protection Function - Toyota sienna 2004 Service Manual

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:
