Using the Power Windows (If equipped)
[CF31800(ALL)01/96]
Each front door has a power control that opens
and closes the window on that door. The
driver's door has a master control switch that
operates both front door windows. You must
place the ignition switch in the ON or ACC
position to use your power window controls.

[CF31900(ALL)01/96]
RWARNING
Make sure that the liftgate door and/or
window are closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle.
This will also prevent passengers and
cargo from falling out. If you must drive
with the liftgate door or window open,
keep the vents open so outside air comes
into the vehicle.
