personal injury, be sure to clear your arms, hands,
fingers, and objects from the window path before

It may be necessary at some point in time to reactivate
the Auto-up/Auto-down feature. To do so, perform
the following steps:
1. Pull the window switch up to close the window completely and continue to hold the switch up for
an additional two seconds after the window is
closed.
2. Push the window switch down firmly to the second detent to open the window completely and con-

Window Lockout Switch
The window lockout switch on the driver's door trim
panel allows you to disable the window control on the
rear doors. To disable the window controls, press and
release the window lockout button (setting it in the
down position). To enable the window controls, press and release the window lockout button again (setting it

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 (for versions/markets,
where provided) in certain open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence and can be
minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear win-
dows open, then open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting
occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof
opening to minimize the buffeting or open any window.

All occupants, including the driver, should
not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle's
seat until the head restraints are placed
in their proper positions in order to minimize the
risk of neck injury in the event of a collision.
NOTE: For more information on properly adjusting
and positioning the head restraint, refer to “Adjusting
Active Head Restraints” in “Knowing Your Vehicle”. Resetting Active Head Restraints (AHR)
If the Active Head Restraints are triggered in a collision,
you must reset the head restraint on the driver’s and
front passenger seat. You can recognize when the
Active Head Restraint has been triggered by the fact
that they have moved forward (as shown in step three
of the resetting procedure).

(fig. 122)
2. Position the hands on the top of the deployed AHR at a comfortable position.
