(wind shock) with either side windows
opened, you should open the opposite
window slightly to reduce the condition.
CAUTION
 To prevent the power window
system from the possibility ofdamage, do not open or close twowindows at the same time. Thiswill also ensure the longevity of the fuse.
 Never try to operate the main switch on the driver's door andthe individual door windowswitch in opposing directions atthe same time. If this is done, the window will stop and cannot beopened or closed.
WARNING
 Make sure hands and face are safely out of the way before clos-
ing a window.
