and place the hood prop in its retainer. Slowly lower
the engine hood to about 12 inches (30 cm) from the
closed position, then release it. The hood should latch

from a slightly higher position.
CAUTION!
Be careful that hands or fingers are not trapped
when closing the engine hood.

switch is turned off. However, once the driver's door or
the front passenger's door is opened, the windows can-
not be operated until the ignition switch is turned on
again.

switch in opposing directions at the same time. Doing so
will cause the window to freeze in position.
3. Repeated operation with the engine stopped (key
ªONº) will run down the battery. Operate the window
switches while the engine is running.
WARNING!
²Before operating the power windows, make sure
that nothing can be trapped (head, hand, finger,
etc.) in the window.
²Never leave the vehicle without removing the key.
