Door Closer; Locking With Rear Door Child-Protector - Lexus 2004 LS430 Owner's Manual

Door closer (some models)
If any door is closed but does not latch shut, it
automatically closes completely. This system is equipped
on all the doors and will activate regardless of the ignition
switch position.
Pulling the door handle will cancel the door closer, allowing you
to open the door which is about to close. However, pulling the
door handle of the rear door which is locked with the child
protector will not cancel the door closer.
CAUTION
D Careful attention is needed so as not to get your
fingers trapped as the door automatically closes
when the door has not been fully closed.
D Never allow a child to operate the door.
