Power Windows

The windows can be opened/closed by operating the power window switches.

WARNING

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.

Never allow children to play with power window switches:

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 cannot prevent the window from closing all the way. If

ꢀngers are caught, serious injuries could occur.

with the ignition switched ON. Do not open or close both windows at the same time.

NOTE



A power window may no longer open/close if you continue to press the switch after

opening/closing the power window. If the power window does not open/close, wait a

moment and then operate the switch again.



The passenger windows may be opened or closed using the master control switches on the

driver's door.

The power window can be operated for about 40 seconds after the ignition is switched

from ON to ACC or off with all doors closed. If any door is opened, the power window

will stop operating.

For engine-off operation of the power window, the switch must be held up firmly

throughout window closure because the auto-closing function will be inoperable.

When the power window lock switch is in the locked position, the light on the passenger

power window switch turns off. The light may be difficult to see depending on the

surrounding brightness.
