OPERATING FROM OUTSIDE
The back window moves as long as you
hold the outer switch.
To open: Turn the key counterclockwise.
To close: Turn the key clockwise.
You can also open the back window when the back window wiper is working. At the
time, the wiper stops working until the win-
dow is closed again.
CAUTION!
To avoid serious personal injury,
you must do the following.
Always make sure the head,
hands and other parts of the body
of all occupants are kept com-
pletely inside the vehicle before
you close the power back window.
If someone's neck, head or hands
gets caught in a closing window,
it could result in a serious injury.
When anyone closes the power
back window, be sure that they
operate the window safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the pow-
er back window switch without
supervision. Use the window lock
button to prevent them from mak-ing unexpected use of the switch.
Never leave small children alone
in the vehicle, especially with the
ignition key still inserted. They
could use the power back window
switch and get trapped in a win-
dow. Unattended children can be- come involved in serious acci- dents.
Keep the back window closed
while driving. This not only keeps
the luggage from being thrown
out but also prevents exhaust gases from entering the vehicle.
