“Memory Height” Learning Procedure
3-37
3-36
Memory Height Button
Note:
(Module 926)
Closer Switch
The ignition should be off and the PRG should be closed (Memory Height Button
should be “OFF”).
1. Open the rear gate by using the power rear gate function.
2. With the rear gate at the desired height, stop it by using the power rear gate function (use
any control button to stop the gate).
3. Press the memory switch to select the “ON” status (Lowest Position).
3-38
Power Rear Gate Button
4. With the rear gate at the desired height, press and hold the power rear gate button on the
inside edge of the rear gate until an electronic chirp is heard and the hazard warning lights
flash three times.
The electronic chirp and the flashing hazard warning lightts confirm the selected rear gate height
has been registered.
It is possible to register the height from approximately 12 in (30cm) or more from the completely
closed position.

(Module 926)
Retrieval of the rear gate height:
To open the rear gate and stop it at the registered height, perform the following procedure.
1. Press the memory switch to select the ON status.
2. Press and hold any of the power rear gate switches. Even if any of the power rear gate
switches are pressed and held while the memory switch is in the OFF status, you can stop
it at the registered height by pressing the memory switch to select the ON status before the
rear gate reaches the registered height.
Operating Characteristics
Note:
The rear gate will open to the position that is stored in the memory function
even if the rear gate is opened by the reverse (Safety) function.
Rear gate drop prevention function
If, while fully opened via the power rear gate function, the rear gate is lowered by the weight of
snow and such, an electronic chirp will sound and the rear gate drop prevention function will apply
braking to the rear gate so that it prevents a rapid closure of the rear gate.
Note:
If there is snow on the rear gate only use the power rear gate function after
removing the snow.
If you close the rear gate manually just after the rear gate is fully opened using the power rear
gate function, the rear gate drop prevention function will operate, detecting a rapid closure of the
rear gate and apply braking to the rear gate. In this case, this is not a malfunction.
If the reverse function is operated 3 times consecutively, automatic opening and closing of the
power rear gate function will be canceled and the rear gate will stop opening or closing suddenly.
Whether the rear gate opens or closes depends on the rear gate height when automatic operation
is ceased. Be careful that the rear gate does not hit anyone’s head or face, etc. and that fingers
and baggage, etc. are not caught in it.
Take care not to damage the touch sensors. Otherwise, the reverse function may cease to operate.
If, while opening or closing using power rear gate, the rear gate catches persons or baggage or
hits an obstacle, an electronic chirp will sound 3 times and the rear gate will operate as follows:
When opening the rear gate:
When closing the rear gate:
The rear gate will automatically close.
The rear gate will automatically open.

June 2014

(Module 926)
The power rear gate operates only when all of the following conditions are satisfied.
1. The vehicle is stopped completely.
2. The outside temperature is within a specified range.
3. The ignition switch is in the “LOCK”/ “OFF” or “ACC” position. Or, the ignition switch is in
the “ON” position and the parking brake is applied (MT models)/the select lever is in the
“P” position (CVT models).
NOTE: If the power rear gate button is pressed repeatedly while the power rear gate is
operating, the system may ignore the button operation in order to avoid being
damaged. Do not press the button unnecessarily.
It is not possible to stop the rear gate temporarily while opening between the
completely closed position and approximately 12 in (30 cm) open. If you press
one of the power rear gate buttons briefly during this range, the rear gate will be
closed.
If the vehicle starts to move while the power rear gate is operating, the system
sounds a buzzer and closes the rear gate automatically. At this time, if the
system detects jamming, it will deactivate the power rear gate and the rear gate
will not be closed. If this occurs, close the rear gate via regular procedures.
If you try to open the rear gate using the power rear gate function immediately
after closing the rear gate using the power rear gate function, an electronic chirp
will sound and the rear gate will not open. Wait for a while before trying to open
the rear gate.

Airbag components
The two front Sub Sensors are now located more to the center of the vehicle, under the hood stopper
bumpers. Always use the correct bolt to secure the sensor to the vehicle body. Bolts that are too
long will change the accuracy of the sensor as it will make contact with other body components.
4-3
Front Sub Sensor
A new Front Door Sensor has been installed to the vehicles’ SRS systems. The sensor detects
changes in air pressure in the chamber that exists between the outer and inner door walls. An
Impact to a door changes the shape of the outer wall and changes the air pressure that exists in
the chamber at the instant of impact. A plastic door plate has been installed over a portion of the
inner wall to restrict the volume of air that would be displaced during a collision. This improves
the sensitivity of the Front Door Sensor.

Air enters the sensor through the funnel shaped duct and directs the air to a pressure sensor
located inside the sensor.

Internal View Front Door Sensor
O-ring Front Door Sensor
The back side of the sensor is equipped with an O-ring to prevent air from leaking into the back
side of the sensor during collision. Never re-install a sensor that has been removed as the sealing
qualities of the O-ring will be reduced.
The Front Seat Side Airbags
The Front Seat Side Airbags have been redesigned to provide two protection zones. The
construction of the airbag now includes two chambers that provide a high pressure lumbar area
protection zone and a softer low pressure chest and rib protection zone.
