POWER WINDOWS (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not leave children unattended in
your vehicle and do not let them play
with the power windows. They may
seriously injure themselves. When closing the power windows,
you should verify they are free of
obstructions and make sure that
children and pets are not in the proximity
of the window openings. Note:
You may hear a pulsing noise when
just one of the windows is open. Lower the
opposite window slightly to reduce this
noise.
Press the switch to open the window.
Lift the switch to close the window.
One-Touch Up or Down
(If Equipped)
Press or lift the switch fully and release it.
Press or lift it again to stop the window.
Note: The window may disable for up to
five minutes if you cycle it up and down
repeatedly. This helps prevent damage to
the motor. Normal operation resumes once
the motor cools.
Restoring the One-Touch Up Function
You may lose the one-touch function if the
vehicle battery is low. Note:
Perform one-touch up re-calibration
with the door closed. Calibrating with the
door open causes the window to bounce
back continuously.
To reset the function after the battery
recharges:
1. Pull the switch all the way up.
2. Hold the switch until the glass stops and continue to hold for two seconds.
3. Press the switch down and operate the
window to the full down position.
One-touch up is now functional.
Bounce-Back
(If Equipped)
The window stops automatically while
closing. It reverses some distance if there
is an obstacle in the way.
Overriding the Bounce-Back Feature WARNING
When you override the bounce-back
feature, the window will not reverse
if it detects an obstacle. Take care
when closing the windows to avoid
personal injury or damage to your vehicle. Pull up the window switch and hold within
two seconds of the window reaching the
bounce-back position. The window travels
up with no bounce-back protection. The
window stops if you release the switch
before the window closes fully.
Window Lock
(If Equipped)
Press the control to lock or unlock the rear
window controls.
