Knowing your vehicle

Power windows

The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls that door’s window.
However, the driver has a power window
lock switch which can block the operation
of passenger windows.
The power windows can be operated for
approximately 30 seconds after the igni-
tion key is removed or turned to the ACC
or LOCK position. However, if the front
doors are opened, the power windows
cannot be operated even within the 30
seconds after the ignition key removal.

NOTICE

• If you notice buffeting and pulsation

(wind shock) with either side window
open, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.

• In cold and wet climates, power win-

dows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.

WINDOWS

CAUTION

• To protect the power window sys-

tem from the possibility of dam-
age, do not open or close two
windows at the same time. This
will also ensure the longevity of
the fuse.

• Never try to operate the main

switch on the driver's door and
the individual door window
switch in opposing directions at
the same time. If this is done, the
window will stop and cannot be
opened or closed.

WARNING -

Windows

• Always double check to make

sure all arms, hands, head and
other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a win-
dow.

• Do not allow children to play with

the power windows. Keep the
driver’s door power window lock
switch in the LOCK position
(depressed). Serious injury can
result from unintentional window
operation by the child.

• Do not extend face or arms out-

side through the window opening
while driving.
