CAUTION!
Before driving, be sure that the
doors are closed and locked, espe-
cially when small children are in the
vehicle. Along with the proper use
of seat belts, locking the doors
helps prevent the driver and pas-
sengers from being thrown out from
the vehicle during an accident. It
also helps prevent the doors from
being opened unintentionally.
The windows can be operated with the
switch on each side door.
The power windows work when the igni- tion switch is in the ONº position. Howev-
er, if both front side doors are closed, they work for 60 seconds even after the ignition
switch is turned off. They stop working
when either front side door is opened.
OPERATING THE DRIVER'S WINDOW
Use the switch on the driver's door.
Normal operation: The window moves
as long as you hold the switch.
To open: Lightly push down the switch.
To close: Pull up the switch.Automatic operation (to open only):
Push the switch completely down and
then rel ease it. The window will fully open.
To stop the window partway, lightly pull the
switch up and then release it.
