POWER SLIDING REAR WINDOW
• The switch for the power sliding rear
window is located on the overhead
console.
• Push the switch right to open the
glass and pull the switch left to close
the glass.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If
buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear
windows together.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust
any window. This will minimize buffeting.
