Power windows

OPERATING THE DRIVER’S WINDOW

Use the switch on the driver’s door.

If the power window does not operate

automatically or the jam protection

function does not operate correctly, you

should normalize the power window.

Normal operation: The window moves as

long as you hold the switch.

To normalize the power window:

To open: Lightly push down the switch.

To close: Lightly pull up the switch.

1. Push down the power window switch

and lower the windows fully.

Automatic operation: Push the switch

completely down or pull it completely up,

and then release it. The window will fully

open or close. To stop the window part-

way, lightly move the switch in the oppo-

site direction and then release it.

2. Pull up the switch until the windows

close and hold the switch for a second.

Make sure that the window open and

close automatically. If the power windows

cannot be operated properly, have it

checked by your Toyota dealer.

Jam protection function: During automat-

ic closing operation, the window stops and

opens half way if something gets caught

between the window and window frame.

The windows can be operated with the

switch on each door. The passengers’

windows can also be controlled by the

switches on the driver’s door.

CAUTION

D Never try jamming any part of your

body to activate the jam protection

function intentionally, as it could re-

sult in a death or serious injury.

If the window receives a strong impact,

this function may work even if nothing is

caught.

The power windows work when the ignition

switch is in the “ON” position.

Key off operation: If the either front door

is closed, they work for 45 seconds even

after the ignition switch is turned off. They

stop working when the either front door is

opened.

D The jam protection function may

not work if something gets caught

just before the window is fully

closed.
