Each door has a power window switch
that controls the door’s window. 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 igni-
tion 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
seconds after the ignition key removal.
While driving, if you notice buffeting and
pulsation (wind shock) with either side
window open, you should open the oppo-
site window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.

window switch that controls all the win-
dows in the vehicle.

or pull up the front portion of the corre-
sponding switch to the first detent posi-
tion (5).Auto down window (if equipped)

momentarily to the second detent posi-
tion (6) completely lowers the driver’s

to the opposite direction of the window
movement.

pulling up on driver’s power window
switch for at least 1 second after the

If the upward movement of the driver’s
window is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the window will detect the
resistance and will stop upward move-
ment. The window will then lower approx-
imately 12 in. (30 cm) to allow the object
to be cleared.
If the window detects resistance while
the power window switch is pulled up
continuously, the window will stop
upward movement then lower approxi-
mately 1in. (2.5cm). If the power window
switch is pulled up continuously again
within 5 seconds after the window is low-
ered by the automatic window reversal
feature, the automatic window reversal
will not operate.

used by fully pulling up the
switch. The automatic reverse
feature will not operate if the win-
dow is raised using the halfway
position on the power window
switch.

before raising any window to
avoid injuries or vehicle damage.
If an object less than 0.16 in. (4
mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and
the upper window channel, the
automatic reverse window may
not detect the resistance and will
not stop and reverse direction.
