05 02.25 Access doors (access cab models) CAUTION Before driving, be sure that the doors are closed and locked, especially when small children are in the vehicle. Along with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors helps prevent the driver and passengers from being thrown out from the vehicle in an accident. It also helps prevent the doors from being opened unintentionally. For easy access to the rear seat, open the access door (rear door). To open: First, open the front door widely. Then pull (from the outside) or push (from the inside) the inside handle of the access door. If you try to open the front and rear doors simultaneously, they will not open. To close: First, close the access door completely. Then close the front door. You can open and close the access door only when the front door is widely opened. LS12009a NOTICE The front door and access door could be damaged if they hit each other when being opened or closed. Be sure to follow the above instructions. 2005 TACOMA from Mar. '05 Prod.
