or the request switch (with advanced key)
on the trunk lid and giving the other
person only the valet key, which does not
open the trunk.

qAuto-Opening
Because nobody likes getting into a very
hot car, we have introduced a way to get a
head start on cooling it, even before you
put your seat belts on and insert your key
in the ignition. If you see the vehicle is in
a secure area, you can open the all
windows as you approach the vehicle to
get the air moving before you even step
into the hot vehicle.
WARNING
Auto-Opening Windows and Security:
Do not let children play with your
keys. If they open the window without
your knowing, the open windows are
an even bigger invitation to a thief
than leaving the doors unlocked. Use
the Auto-Window function only when
you can see the vehicle and it is in a
secure area.
The windows can be opened for
ventilating the cabin before getting in the
vehicle.
