WINDOWS
Power Windows
The power window controlsare located on the
driver’s door trim panel. There is a single
switch on
the front passenger door and rear
passenger doors
which operate the front and rear passenger door win-
dows. The window controls will operate only when the
keyless push button ignition is placed in the ON/RUN
or ACC position.
The power window switches remain active for up to 10
minutes after the ignition has been turned OFF. Opening a
vehicle front door will cancel this feature.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, and do
not let children play with power windows. Do not
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location
accessible to children, and do not leave the ignition of
a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the
ACC or ON/RUN mode. Occupants, particularly unat-
tended children, can become entrapped by the win-
dows while operating the power window switches.
Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death.
Auto-Down
Both the driver and front passenger window switches have
an “Auto-Down” feature. Push the window
switch
past the first detent, release, and the window will go
down automatically. To cancel the “Auto-Down” move-
ment, operate the switch in either the up or down
direction and release the switch.

partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and
can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear

together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting.
