The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate. Each door has a power window
switch that controls that door’s win-
dow. 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 ignition 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 sec-
onds after the ignition key removal.✽ ✽NOTICE
While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if
equipped) in an open (or partially
open) position, your vehicle may
demonstrate a wind buffeting or
pulsation noise. This noise is a nor-
mal occurrence and can be reduced
or eliminated by taking the follow-
ing 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.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• To prevent the power window sys-
tem from the possibility of dam-
age, do not open or close two win-
dows at the same time. This will
also ensure the longevity of the
fuse. (Continued)(Continued)
• Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door and the
individual door window switch in
opposing directions at the same
time. If this is done, the window
will stop and cannot be opened or
closed.
