REAR DOOR CHILD- PROTECTORS
Move the lock lever to the ºLOCKº
position as shown on the label.
This feature allows you to lock a rear
door so it can be opened from the
outside only, not from inside. We rec-
ommend using this feature whenever
small children are in the vehicle.
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the
doors are closed and locked, es-
pecially when small children are
in the vehicle. Along with the
proper use of seat belts, locking
the doors helps prevent the driv-
er and passengers from being
thrown out from the vehicle dur-
ing an accident. It also helps pre-
vent the doors from being
opened unintentionally.
Power windows

4RUNNER (1998)
The windows can be operated with
the switch on each side door.
The power windows work when the
ignition switch is in the ºONº position.
However, if both front side doors are
closed, they work for 43 seconds
even after the ignition switch is turned
off. They stop working when either
front side door is opened.
OPERATING THE DRIVER'S WIN- DOW
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.

4RUNNER (1998)
Automatic operation (to open only):
Push the switch completely down and
then release it. The window will fully
open. To stop the window partway,
lightly pull the switch up and then
release it.
