driving

The situations in which the slid-

ing door does not open com-

pletely

The left side sliding door does not 

open completely when the fuel filler 

door is opened.

Sliding door reserve lock func-

tion

This function is a function which 

reserves locking of all doors before-

hand, when the power sliding door 

is open.
When the following procedure is 

performed, all the doors except the 

power sliding door are locked and 

then power sliding door will also be 

locked at the same time it is closed.
