LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH
POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCH
Push the switch.

To unlock: Push the switch on the rear
side
Both doors lock or unlock simultaneously.
Before driving, be sure that the side
doors are closed and locked, espe-
cially when small children are in the
vehicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the side doors
helps prevent the driver and passen-
gers from being thrown out from the
vehicle during an accident. It also
helps prevent the side doors from
being opened unintentionally. 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 oc-
cupants are kept completely inside
the vehicle before you close the
power windows. If someone's n eck,
head or hands gets caught in a clos-
ing window, it could result in a seri-
ous injury. When anyone closes the
power windows, be sure that they
operate the windows safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock button
to prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unattended
children can become involved in se-
rious accidents. CAUTION
!
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 side doors are closed, they work
for 60 seconds even after the ignition
switch is turned off. They stop working
when either 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 pull down the switch.
To close: Push up the switch.

when the cap is opened. When installing,
turn the cap clockwise till you hear a click.

The SRS (Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem) airbags are designed to provide
further protection to the driver and
front passenger when added to the pri-
mary protection provided by the seat
belts.
In response to a severe frontal impact, the
SRS airbags work together with the seat
belts to help prevent or reduce injury by in-
flating, in order to decrease the likelihood
of the driver's or front passenger's head
or chest directly hitting the steering wheel
or dashboard. The passenger airbag is
activated together with the driver airbag,
even with no passenger in the front seat.This indicator comes on when the
ignition key is turned to the ACCº or
ONº position. It goes off after about 6
seconds. This means the SRS airbags
are operating properly.
The SRS airbag warning light system
monitors the front airbag sensors, center
airbag sensor assembly, inflators, warn-
ing light, interconnecting wiring and power
sources.The SRS airbag system is designed to
activate in response to a severe frontal
impact within the shaded area be-
tween the arrows in the illustration.
The SRS airbags will deploy if the severity
of the impact is above the designed
threshold level, comparable to an approxi-
mate 20 km/h (14 mph) collision when im-
pacting straight into a fixed barrier that
does not move or deform.
If the severity of the impact is below the
above threshold level, the SRS airbags
may not deploy.
