Features of your vehicle
Emergency trunk safety
release
Your vehicle is equipped with an
emergency trunk release cable locat-
ed inside the trunk. The lever glows
in the dark when the trunk lid is
closed. If someone is inadvertently
locked in the trunk, pulling this han-
dle will release the trunk latch mech-
anism and open the trunk.
OBK042008
WARNING
No one should be allowed to
occupy the trunk of the vehi-
cle at any time. If the trunk is
partially or totally latched and
the person is unable to get
out, severe injury or death
could occur due to lack of
ventilation, exhaust fumes
and rapid heat build-up, or
because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous
location in the event of a
crash because it is not a pro-
tected occupant space but is
a part of the vehicle’s crush
zone.
Your vehicle should be kept
locked and keys be kept out of
the reach of children. Parents
should teach their children
about the dangers of playing
in trunks.

Features of your vehicle
Power windows
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to oper-
ate.
Each door has a power window
switch that controls the door's win-
dow. The power windows can be
operated for approximately 30 sec-
onds after the ignition key is removed
or turned to the ACC or LOCK posi-
tion. However, if the doors open, the
power windows cannot be operated
within the 30 second period after
ignition key is removed or turned to
the ACC or LOCK position.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
While driving 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 eliminated by
slightly reducing the size of the sun-
roof opening.
Window opening and closing
The driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle.
To open or close a window, press
down or pull up the front portion of
the corresponding switch to the first
detent position (3).
Auto up/down window
(if equipped)
Depressing or pulling up the power
window switch momentarily to the
second detent position (4) complete-
ly lowers or lifts the window even
when the switch is released. To stop
the window at the desired position
while the window is in operation,
momentarily pull the switch in the
direction opposite of the window’s
movement.

If the power window is not operated
correctly, the automatic power win-
dow system must be reset as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Open the window fully by manual
down(press the front portion of the
switch to the first detent position.).
3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF
position and to the ON position
again within 2 seconds.
4. Press the front portion of the
switch 3 times within 5 seconds.
5. Close the window and continue
pulling up on the power window
switch for at least 1 second after
the window is completely closed.Automatic reversal
If the upward movement of the window
is blocked by an object or part of the
body, the window will detect the resist-
ance and will stop upward movement.
The window will then lower approxi-
mately 11.8 in. (30 cm) to allow the
object to be cleared.
If the window detects the resistance
while the power window switch is
pulled up continuously, the window will
stop upward movement then lower
approximately 1 in. (2.5 cm). And if the
power window switch is pulled up con-
tinuously again within 5 seconds after
the window is lowered by the automat-
ic window reversal feature, the auto-
matic window reversal will not operate.✽ ✽
NOTICE
The automatic reverse feature for
the driver’s and front passenger’s
windows are only active when the
“auto up” feature is used by fully
pulling up the switch. The automat-
ic reverse feature will not operate if
the window is raised using the
halfway position on the power win-
dow switch.
WARNING
Always check for obstructions
before raising any window to
avoid injuries or vehicle damage.
If an object less than 0.16 in. (4
mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and
the upper window channel, the
automatic reverse window may
not detect the resistance and will
not stop and reverse direction.

Features of your vehicle
CAUTION
To prevent possible damage
to the power window system,
do not open or close two win-
dows or more at the same
time. This will also ensure the
longevity of the fuse.
Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door
and the individual door win-
dow switch in opposing direc-
tions at the same time. If this
is done, the window will stop
and cannot be opened or
closed.
WARNING - Windows
Never leave the keys in your
vehicle with unsupervised
children, when the Engine is
running.
NEVER leave any child unat-
tended in the vehicle. Even
very young children may inad-
vertently cause the vehicle to
move, entangle themselves in
the windows, or otherwise
injure themselves or others.
Always double check to make
sure all arms, hands, head
and other obstructions are
safely out of the way before
closing a window.
Do not allow children to play
with the power windows. Keep
the driver’s door power win-
dow lock switch in the LOCK
position (depressed). Serious
injury can result from uninten-
tional window operation by
the child.
Do not extend a face or arms
outside through the window
opening while driving.

obstruction present in the
hood opening may result in
property damage or severe
personal injury.
Do not leave gloves, rags or
any other combustible material
in the engine compartment.
Doing so may cause a heat-
induced fire.
Always double check to be
sure that the hood is firmly
latched before driving away. If it
is not latched, the hood could
open while the vehicle is being
driven, causing a total loss of
visibility, which might result in
an accident.
Do not move the vehicle with
the hood in the raised position,
as vision is obstructed and the
hood could fall or be damaged.

tap lightly or push on the door to
break the ice and release the door.
Do not pry on the door. If necessary,
spray around the door with an
approved de-icer fluid (do not use
radiator anti-freeze) or move the
vehicle to a warm place and allow
the ice to melt.
1. Stop the engine.
2. To open the fuel filler door, push
the fuel filler door opener button.
3. Pull the fuel filler door (1) out to
fully open.
4. To remove the cap, turn the fuel
tank cap (2) counterclockwise.
5. Refuel as needed.

securely closed.
FUEL FILLER DOOR
WARNING - Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it
can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always
remove the fuel cap carefully
and slowly. If the cap is venting
fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until the condition
stops before completely
removing the cap.
Do not "top off" after the nozzle
automatically shuts off when
refueling.
Tighten the cap until it clicks
one time, otherwise the
Malfunction Indicator Light
will illuminate.
Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.

(Continued)
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers
designed to carry and store
gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicle
once 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 stat-
ic electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel
vapors resulting in rapid burn-
ing. If you must re-enter the
vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially dangerous
static electricity discharge by
touching a metal part of the
vehicle, away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle or other gasoline
source.
(Continued)WARNING - Refueling
dangers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling,
please note the following guide-
lines carefully. Failure to follow
these guidelines may result in
severe personal injury, severe
burns or death by fire or explo-
sion.
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station facil-
ity.
Before refueling, note the
location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station facility.
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touch-
ing another metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
