braking or a collision, they are susceptible to death or serious injury.

CAUTION  
Operating the back door  
Observe the following precautions.  
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in death  
or serious injury.  
Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the back door  
before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the back door to suddenly  
shut again after it is opened.  
When opening or closing the back door, thoroughly check to make sure  
the surrounding area is safe.  
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that  
the back door is about to open or close.  
Use caution when opening or closing the back door in windy weather as it  
may move abruptly in strong wind.  
The back door may suddenly shut if it is  
not opened fully. It is more difficult to  
open or close the back door on an  
incline than on a level surface, so  
beware of the back door unexpectedly  
opening or closing by itself. Make sure  
that the back door is fully open and  
secure before using the luggage com-  
partment.  
When closing the back door, take extra  
care to prevent your fingers etc. from  
being caught.  
Do not pull on the back door damper stay to close the back door, and do  
not hang on the back door damper stay.

break, causing an accident.
