Power windows The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls that door’s win-
dow. However, the driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
If you notice buffeting and pulsation
(wind shock) with either side window
open, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.
✽ ✽NOTICETo prevent the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of damage,
do not open or close two windows at
the same time. This will also ensure
the longevity of the fuse.
CAUTION
 Make sure hands and face are
safely out of the way beforeclosing a window.
 Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keepthe driver’s door power win-dow lock switch in the LOCKposition (depressed). Seriousinjury can result from uninten-tional window operation bythe child.
 Do not extend face or arms outside through the windowopening while driving.
 Always double check to make sure all arms, hands and otherobstructions are safely out ofthe way before closing a win-dow

Window opening and closingThe driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle. To open or
close a window, press down or pull
up the front portion of the correspon-
ding switch.
Automatic power windowDepressing or pulling up the power
window switch momentarily to the
second detent position (
\b) com-
pletely lowers or lifts the window
even when the switch is released. To
stop the window at the desired posi-
tion while the window is in operation,
pull up or depress the switch
momentarily to the opposite direction
of the window movement.
If the battery has been discharged
or disconnected, the automatic
power window system must be reset
as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON posi- tion.
2. Close each window and continue pulling up on each power window
switch for at least 0.5 second after
the window is completely closed. Automatic window reversal (When
window is closed by the automatic
power window)
If the upward movement of the win-
dow is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the window will detect the
resistance and will stop upward
movement. The window will then
lower approximately 5.9 inches (150
mm) to allow the object to be
cleared.

Power window lock switch The driver can disable the powerwindow switches on a passenger
door by depressing the power win-
dow lock switch located on the dri-
ver’s door to LOCK (pressed).
 When the power window lock switch is ON, the driver’s master
control cannot operate the passen-
ger door power windows either.
Power window timer
(if equipped)The power windows can be operated
for approximately 30 seconds after
the ignition key is removed or turn to
the ACC or LOCK position. However,
if the front doors are opened, the
power windows cannot be operated
even within the 30 seconds after the
ignition key removal.
WARNING
 The automatic window rever- sal feature (window lowers 5.9
inches [150 mm] when a
resistance is detected) will
only operate when the auto-
matic power window up oper-
ation feature is used.
Automatic window reversal
will not operate if the window
is raised using the first detent
position (
➄) on the power win-
dow switch. Always double
check to make sure all faces,
arms, hands and other
obstructions are safely out of
the way before operating the
power window.
 If an object less than 0.16 inch (4 mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass
and the upper window chan-
nel, the automatic reversal
may not detect the resistance
and will not operate.
Therefore, always check for
any obstructions before rais-
ing any window.

WARNING
- Driver’s seat
 Never attempt to adjust seat
while the vehicle is moving.
This could result in loss of
control, and an accident caus-
ing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
 Do not allow anything to inter- fere with the normal position
of the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with
proper locking of a seatback
could result in serious or fatal
injury in a sudden stop or col-
lision.
(Continued)
For a seating position more comfort-
able to the driver and front passen-
ger, adjust the seat forward, back-
ward, up and down.✽ ✽NOTICE• Power seats are driven by the elec-
tric motor. Stop operating if the
adjustment is completed. Excessive
operation may damage the electri-
cal equipment.
• When in operation, the power seats consume large amounts of
electrical power. To prevent unnec-
essary charging system drain,
don’t adjust the power seats longer
than necessary while the engine is
not running.
• Do not operate two or more power seat control buttons at the same
time. Doing so may result in power
seat motor or electrical component
malfunction.
WARNING
 Loose objects in the driver ’s
foot area could interfere with
the operation of the foot ped-
als, possibly causing an acci-
dent. Loose objects might
interfere with the seat slide
mechanism. Do not place any-
thing under the front seats.
 The power seats are operable
with the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should
never be left unattended in the
car.

height adjustmentAdjusting the seat forward and back-
ward

desired position. Release the knob
and the seat will lock in the selected
position. Adjust the seat before driving, and

death, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel so that your chest is
