The powered door system incorporates soft-close latches. The soft-close latches secures the doors automatically. Before operating the power doors, make sure that the area is clear and that anyone in the vicinity does not have any body part in a position where it could be trapped. Note that the soft close action does not incorporate object detection. Death or serious injury could occur, even with an object detection system.
The side object detection system is an aid to detect approaching road users from the rear of the vehicle. Side object detection suspends power door operation if an approaching road user is detected. The responsibility of opening any door remains with the vehicle occupants. Occupants must make sure they do not present a hazard to themselves, other road users or pedestrians.
