tance point and released, by pressing the
lower part of the respective switch again.
The door windows are equipped with the ex-
press-close and automatic reversal func-
tion. If a door window encounters an
obstruction that blocks its path in a circum-
stance where you pressed the switch past
the resistance point and released it to close
the window, the automatic reversal function
will stop the window and open it slightly.

that blocks its path in a circumstance where
you are closing the window by pressing and
holding the switch, by pressing and holding

versal function will not operate.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*
from the starter switch, take it with you, and
lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat-
tended in the vehicle, or with access to an
unlocked vehicle. A child’s unsupervised ac-
cess to a vehicle could result in an accident
and/or serious personal injury.

colored. By lining the seats with a proper
intermediate cover, contact-discoloration
will be prevented.Leather upholstery

cloth and dry thoroughly or clean with

forated leather as its underside should not
become wet.
Wood trims
