Power Windows The window controls on the driver's
door panel govern all the door
windows.
There are single window controls on
each passenger door trim panel, which
operate the corresponding window.
The window controls will operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ACC
or RUN position. NOTE:
• The power window switches will
remain active for up to 10 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Opening either
front door will cancel this feature.
The time lapse can be set. See “MTC+
Settings” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls” for
further information.
• Frequent activations of the power
windows could result in a temporary
lock out of the motors. In this case,
wait a moment before a new
activation.
WARNING!
Improper use of the power windows
and the sunroof (if equipped) can
however be dangerous, even with the
anti-pinch prevention system. Before
and during activation of the power
window, always check that the
passengers are not exposed to the risk
of injury both by the moving window
and by personal objects that could be
dragged or hit by it. Do not leave
unattended children in a vehicle with
a key fob RKE transmitter inside.
When getting out the vehicle, always
remove the key fob RKE transmitter to prevent the windows being
accidentally activated, posing a risk to
passengers remaining onboard.
Auto-Down Feature The driver door power window switch
and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
auto-down feature.
Press the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go completely down automatically.
To open the window part way, press
the window switch to the first detent
and release it when you want the
window to stop.
To stop the window from going all the
way down during the auto-down
operation, pull up on the switch
briefly.
Auto-Up Feature with
Anti-Pinch Protection Lift the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go all the way up automatically.
To stop the window from going all the
way up during the auto-up operation,
push down on the switch briefly.
To close the window part way, lift the
window switch to the first detent andBefore Starting

release it when you want the window
to stop.
NOTE:
• If the window runs into any obstacle
during auto-closure, it will reverse
direction and then go back down.
Remove the obstacle and use the
window switch again to close the
window.
• Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto
reverse function unexpectedly
during auto-closure. If this happens,
pull the switch lightly to the first
detent and hold to close the window
manually.
• Frequent activations of the
anti-pinch function could disable the
auto-down and auto-up function of
the windows. In order to re-activate
this function proceed with a reset
cycle as described in the next
paragraph.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection
when the window is almost closed. Be
sure to clear all objects from the area
before closing the window. Reset Auto-Up/Down Should the auto-up/down feature stop
working, the window probably needs
to be reset.
To reset auto-up/down, pull the
window switch up to close the
window completely and push the
window switch down to open the
window completely.
Open the Windows with RKE
Transmitter and Ignition Off When the ignition switch is in OFF
position, windows can be opened by
pressing the
button on the RKE
transmitter.
• Press the button and release it;
• Press a second time the
button
and keep it pressed until complete
opening of the windows, if they
were closed.
Rear Window and Sunshade
Lockout Button The window lockout button on the
driver's door trim panel allows to
disable the window and sunshade
control on the rear doors by pressing
the window lockout button (setting it
in the down position). To enable the controls previously
described, press the window lockout
button again (setting it in the up

Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as
the perception of pressure or a
helicopter-type sound. Your vehicle
may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if
equipped) in open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence
and can be minimized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open,
open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If
the buffeting occurs with the sunroof
open, then adjust the sunroof opening
to minimize the buffeting.Before Starting
