Power Windows
The Engine Start/Stop Button must
be ON, before raising or lowering the
windows.
Each door has a Power Window
switch to control that door's window.
The driver has a Power Window Lock
switch to block the operation of pas-
senger windows. The power windows
even operate for approximately 30
seconds after turning the Engine
Start/Stop Button to the ACC or
LOCK position. However, after open-
ing a front door, the Power Windows
do not operate.
Information
While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if equipped)
open (or partially open), your vehicle
may experience noise due to the wind
resistance. This is normal, and the
noise can be reduced or eliminated by
taking the following actions. When the
noise occurs with one or both of the
rear windows down, lower both the
front windows approximately by one
inch. When you experience the noise
with the sunroof open, slightly close
the sunroof to reduce the opening size.

Press the window switch to the first
detent position (5). Release the
switch to stop the operation, as
desired.

detent position (5). Release the
switch to stop the operation, as
desired.
Auto Up/Down Window
Momentary pressing or pulling up of
the Power Window Switch to the sec-
ond detent position (6) can com-
pletely raise or lower the window,
even when the switch is released. To
stop the window at the desired posi-
tion while the window is in operation,
slightly press or pull up the switch,

To Reset the Power Windows
When the power windows do not nor-
mally operate, the automatic power
window system must be reset as fol-
lows:

2. Continue pulling up the power win- dow switch even after fully closing
the windows for one second or

Automatic Reverse
When a window sensor detects any
obstacle while automatically closing
the window, the window will stop the
upward movement, and then be low-
ered by approximately 12 in (30 cm)
to allow the object to be cleared.
When the window sensor detects the
resistance while pulling up the power
window switch, the window will stop
the upward movement, and then be
lowered by approximately 1 in (2.5
cm). When the power window switch is
pulled up again within five seconds
after the window is lowered by the
automatic reverse function, this func-
tion does not operate.
Information
The automatic reverse function for the
driver’s window is only active when
the “auto up” function is used by fully
pulling up the switch. The automatic
reverse function will not operate,
when the window is half open by oper-
ating the Power Window switch.

Make sure heads, other body
parts or other objects are not
extended from the windows,
before closing, to avoid injury
or vehicle damage.
Objects, which are less than
0.16 in. (4 mm) in diameter and
caught between the window
and the upper window frame,
may not be detected by the
automatic reverse sensor. Thus,
the window operation will not
automatically stop and be
reversed.

while operating a window curtain.
This may damage a window cur-
tain.

(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehiclewhile refueling. You may build
up static electricity by touch-
ing, rubbing or sliding against
any item or fabric capable of
producing static electricity.
Static electricity discharge
may ignite fuel vapors, caus-
ing a fire. When you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
eliminate potentially danger-
ous static electricity once
again by touching a metal part
of the vehicle with your bare
hand, keeping a safe distance
away from the fuel filler neck,
nozzle, or other gas source.
When using an approved portable fuel container, make
sure to place the container on
the ground, before refueling.
Static electricity discharged
from the container may ignite
fuel vapors, causing a fire.
Once refueling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
Use only approved portable plastic fuel containers
designed to carry and store
gasoline.
When refueling, always set the shift lever in P (Park), set the
parking brake, and turn OFF
the Engine Start/Stop button.
Sparks produced by electrical
components related to the
engine may ignite fuel vapors,
causing a fire.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not use matches or alighter and do not smoke or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station,
especially during refueling.
Do not overfill or "top-off" your vehicle tank, which may
cause gasoline spillage.
When a fire breaks out during refueling, stay away from the
vehicle, and immediately noti-
fy it to the gas station manag-
er, and call the local fire
department. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.
When pressurized fuel sprays out, it may cover your clothes
or skin. This puts you at risk
of fire and burns. Always care-
fully and slowly open the fuel
cap. When the fuel vents out
from the tank, or when you
hear a hissing sound, wait
until those stop before com-
pletely opening the cap.
Always check that the fuel cap is securely closed to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.
