When closing the back door, use the inside handle for
easier reach to the back door.
To close the back door, lower it and press down on it. After
closing the back door, try pulling it up to make sure it is securely
closed.
See "Luggage stowage precautions" on page 69 for
precautions to observe in loading luggage.
CAUTION
D Keep the back door closed while driving. This not
only keeps the luggage from being thrown out but
also prevents exhaust gases from entering the
vehicle.
D If the open back door hides the rear stop and tail
lights or rear turn signal lights while you are parked,
other road users must be warned of the presence of
your vehicle by a warning triangle or other device.
To prevent damage to the back door dampers, do not
apply any force, paint or let any other foreign matter on
them.
