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 within the 30 sec-
onds after the ignition key removal.
While driving, if you notice wind buffeting
or pulsation (wind shock) with either side
window open, you should open the oppo-
site window slightly to reduce the condi-
