It may be necessary at some point in time to reactivate the
Auto Up feature. To do so, perform the following proce-
dure:
1. Pull the window switch up to close window com-
pletely and continue to hold the switch up for an

Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof or Sky Slider(if
equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.
This is a normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the
buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, then open
the front and rear windows together to minimize the
buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof or Sky
Slider open, adjust the sunroof or Sky Slider opening
to minimize the buffeting or open any window.

DRIVER MEMORY SEAT — IF EQUIPPED
This feature allows the driver to store up to two different
memory profiles, for easy recall through a memory
switch. Each memory profile contains desired position
settings for the driver seat and side mirrors, and a set of
desired radio station presets.
The memory switch is located on the instrument panel to
the left of the steering column. The switch contains an (S)
button to activate the memory save function. It also
contains a rocker switch labeled with the number (1) and
the number (2). The rocker switch allows the driver to
recall either of the two pre-programmed memory profiles
by pressing the appropriate side of the switch.
