The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls that 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.✽ ✽NOTICEWhile driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof in an open (or
partially open position), your vehicle
may demonstrate a wind buffeting or
pulsation noise. This noise is a normal
occurrence and can be reduced or elim-
inated by taking the following actions.
If the noise occurs with one or both of
the rear windows down, partially lower
both front windows approximately one
inch. If you experience the noise with
the sunroof open, slightly reduce the size
of the sunroof opening.
Window opening and closingThe driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the win-
dows in the vehicle.
To open or close a window, press down
(8) or pull up (8) the front portion of the
corresponding switch.
To open or close a rear quarter win- dow, push (8) the corresponding
switch.
CAUTION
To prevent the power window system from the possibility ofdamage, do not open or close twowindows at the same time. This will also ensure the longevity ofthe fuse.
Never try to operate the main switch on the driver's door andthe individual door windowswitch in opposing directions at the same time. If this is done, thewindow will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
WARNING -
Windows
Always double check to make sure all arms, hands, head and
other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a win-
dow.
Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keep the dri-
ver’s door power window lock
switch in the LOCK position

WARNING -
Refueling dan-
gers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines care-
fully. Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Before refueling note the locationof the Emergency Gasoline Shut-
Off, if available, at the gas station
facility.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe distance
away from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicleonce you have begun refueling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing or
sliding against any item or fabric
(polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)
capable of producing static elec-
tricity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other gaso-
line source.
When using a portable fuel con- tainer be sure to place the con-
tainer on the ground prior to refu-
eling. Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. Once refu-
eling has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
(Continued)
(Continued)Use only portable plastic fuel
containers designed to carry and
store gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones while refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cellu-
lar phones can potentially ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
When refueling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced by
electrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling is
complete, check to make sure the
filler cap and filler door are
securely closed, before starting
the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at a
gas station especially during
refueling. Automotive fuel is high-
ly flammable and can, when ignit-
ed, result in fire.

WARNING
- Driver respon-
sibility for front seat pas-
senger
Riding in a vehicle with a front seat-
back 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 internal injuries could result.
The driver must advise the front
passenger to keep the seatback in
an upright position whenever the
vehicle is in motion.
