Toyota Vehicle Intrusion Protection System (Tvip) - Toyota 2006 Matrix Owner's Manual

CLOSING THE GLASS HATCH
Lower the glass hatch and push the
lower center of it until it is locked.
When you open the back door with the
glass hatch opened, the glass hatch will
be closed. After closing the back door,
you should check the glass hatch fully
closed.
See "—Stowage precautions" on page 206
in Section 2 for precautions when loading
luggage.
CAUTION
Keep the back door and glass hatch
closed while driving. This not only
keeps the luggage from being thrown
out but also prevents exhaust gases
from entering the vehicle.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the back door
and glass hatch dampers, do not ap-
ply any force, paint or let any other
foreign matter on them.
