be in the ON position to be able to
raise or lower the windows. Each
door has a Power Window switch to
control that door's window. The driv-
er has a Power Window Lock switch
which can block the operation of pas-
senger windows. The power windows
will operate for approximately 30
seconds after the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the OFF position.
However, if the front doors are
opened, the Power Windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
ond period.

strate a wind buffeting or pulsation
noise. This noise is normal and can
