Power Windows

▼

If the person's hand or head hits

something outside the vehicle, or

sudden braking is applied, it could

result in serious injury or death.

The windows can be opened/closed

by operating the power window

switches.

WARNING

NOTE

When driving with only 1 of the rear

windows open, your ears might

experience a resonating sound.

However, this does not indicate a

problem. The sound can be reduced

by slightly opening a front window or

by changing the size of the rear

window opening.

Make sure the opening is clear before

closing a window:

Closing a power window is dangerous.

A person's hands, head, or even neck

could be caught by the window and

result in serious injury or even death.

This warning applies especially to

children.

Opening/Closing Windows

▼

Never allow children to play with

power window switches:

The window opens while the switch is

pressed and it closes while the switch

is pulled up with the ignition switched

ON. Do not open or close 3 or more

windows at the same time.

The front passenger's window and rear

windows can be opened/closed when

the power window lock switch on the

driver's door is in the unlocked

position. Keep this switch in the locked

position while children are in the

vehicle.

Power window switches that are not

locked with the power window lock

switch would allow children to operate

power windows unintentionally, which

could result in serious injury if a child's

hands, head or neck becomes caught

by the window.

Make sure nothing blocks the window

just before it reaches the fully closed

position or while fully holding up the

power window switch:

Blocking the power window just before

it reaches the fully closed position or

while fully holding up the power

window switch is dangerous.

In this case, the jam-safe function may

not prevent the window from closing

all the way. If ﬁngers are caught,

serious injuries could occur.
