The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls the door’s win-
dow. However, the driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
The power windows can be operated
for approximately 30 seconds after
the ignition key is removed or turned
to the ACC or LOCK position.
However, if the front doors are
opened, the power windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
onds after the ignition key removal.
While driving, if you notice buffeting
and pulsation (wind shock) with
either side window open, you should
open the opposite window slightly to
reduce the condition.
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 corresponding switch to the first
detent position (5).
Auto down window (if equipped)
(Driver’s window)Depressing the power window switch
momentarily to the second detent
position (6) completely lowers the
driver’s window even when the
switch is released. To stop the win-
dow at the desired position while the
window is in operation, pull up the
switch momentarily to the opposite
direction of the window movement.
If the power window is not operated
correctly, the automatic power win-
dow system must be reset as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

WARNING
Driving or riding in a vehicle
with a front seatback reclined
could lead to serious or fatal
injury in an accident. If a front
seat is reclined during an acci-
dent, the occupant’s hips may
slide under the lap portion of
the safety belt applying great
force to the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal inter-
nal injuries could result. The
driver must advise the front pas-
senger to keep the seatbacks in
comfortably upright position
whenever the vehicle is in
motion.

Pre-tensioner seat beltYour vehicle is equipped with driver’s
and front passenger’s pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure that the
seat belts fit tightly against the occu-
pant’s body in certain frontal colli-
sions. The pre-tensioner seat belts
can be activated together with the air
bags, where the frontal collision is
severe enough.The pre-tensioner seat belt is
installed at the front seats, and the
sensor is equipped inside the buckle,
where presence of passenger is
sensed by the fastening of the seat
belts. Therefore, pre-tensioner will
not activate if the passenger is not
fastened with the seat belts.
Likewise, it will activate if buckled
even without a passenger in the
seat. Pre-tensioner seat belt is
designed to activate when the seat-
belt is in use. To ensure the preten-
sioner seatbelts activate in event of a
possible seatbelt buckle switch mal-
function, the system is designed to
activate regardless of whether a seat
belt is in use or if no seat belt use is
detected within 6 seconds of turning
the ignition switch ON.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents. Their locations are shown in
the illustration.

SRS airbag warning light

 If the pre-tensioner seat belt is not working properly, thiswarning light will illuminateeven if there is no malfunctionof SRS air bag system.
