04 SIENNA_U (L/O 0408) CAUTION 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. Back door closer: When the back door has not been fully closed, it is automatically closed completely even if the power back door system is off. CAUTION D Careful attention is needed so as not to get your fingers trapped as the back door automatically closes when it has not been fully closed. NOTICE To avoid damage to the back door dampers, do not apply any force, paint or let any other foreign matter on them. D Never allow a child to operate the back door. When closing the back door, the inside strap can be used to make the reach easier. 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 "-Stowage precautions" on page 389 in Section 2 for precautions when loading luggage.
