lock switch which can block the oper-
ation of rear passenger windows.

opened, the power windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
ond period.

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.

window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle.
