Auto reverse stops sensing when the
window is almost closed. You should
always check that all passengers and
objects are away from the window
bef ore closing it. The driver’s window auto
reverse f unction is disabled when
you continuously pull up the switch. If the driver’s
window senses any obstacle while it
is closing automatically, it will
reverse direction, and then stop. To
close the window, remove the
obstacle, then use the window switch
again.
The windows and the main switch
feature will operate for up to 10
minutes after you turn off the
ignition switch. Opening either f ront
door cancels this f unction.
The indicators inside the window
switches come on when the light
control switch is in either or position with the ignition
switch in the ON (II) position
(driver’s window switch only on LX). When you push the main switch in,
the indicator comes on and the
passengers’ windows cannot be
raised or lowered. Use the main
switchwhenyouhavechildreninthe
vehicle so they do not injure
themselves by operating the
windows unintentionally. To cancel
this feature, push on the switch
again. The switch will pop out. AUTO REVERSE
