Before Driving

Doors and Locks

CAUTION

Sensors are installed on both ends of 

the power liftgate. Be careful not to 

allow the sensors to be scratched or 

damaged by sharp objects, otherwise 

the liftgate may no longer open/close 

automatically. In addition, if the sensor 

is damaged while the liftgate is closing 

automatically, the system will stop.

Sensor

NOTE

The jam-safe equipment does not activate 

during easy closure operation when the 

power liftgate is between the near-shut 

position and fully closed position.

When the power liftgate is moving in the 

open/close direction and an obstruction is 

detected, the beep sound will be heard and 

the liftgate moves in the reverse direction 

and stops.

Liftgate easy closure

The Easy Closure system automatically 

closes the liftgate completely from the 

near-shut position.

This system also operates when the liftgate 

is closed manually.

WARNING

When closing a liftgate, always keep 

hands and fingers away from the 

liftgate:

Placing hands or fingers around a 

liftgate is dangerous because the 

liftgate closes automatically from the 

near-shut position, which could cause 

hands and fingers to be pinched and 

injured.

NOTE



  If the electric liftgate opener is pressed 

while the easy closure function is 

operating, the liftgate can be opened.



  If the liftgate is opened/closed 

repeatedly in a short period of time, the 

easy closure function may not operate. 

Wait for about 2 seconds and then try 

again.
