Front air ventilation seat
(if equipped)The air ventilation seats are provided
to cool the front seats by blowing air
through small vent holes on the sur-
face of the seat cushions and seat-
backs.
When the operation of the air ventila-
tion seat is not needed, keep the
switches in the OFF position.
Whilst the engine is running, push the
switch to cool the driver's seat or the
front passenger's seat (if equipped).
Each time you push the switch, the
airflow changes as follows:
When pressing the switch for more
than 1.5 seconds with the air venti-
lation seat operating, the operation
will turn OFF.
The air ventilation seats default to
the OFF position whenever the
ignition switch is placed to the ON
position.To prevent damage to the air ven-
tilation seat:
Use the air ventilation seat ONLY
when the climate control system
is on. Using the air ventilation
seat for prolonged periods of
time with the climate control
system off could cause the air
ventilation seat to malfunction.
Never use a solvent such as
paint thinner, benzene, alcohol
or petrol to clean the seats.
Avoid spilling liquids on the sur-
face of the front seats and seat-
backs; this may cause the air
vent holes to become blocked
and not work properly.
Do not place materials such as
plastic bags or newspapers
under the seats. They may block
the air intake causing the air
vents to not work properly.NOTICE

The ignition switch must 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 driver has a Power
Window Lock switch which can block
the operation of the passenger win-
dows. The power windows will oper-
ate for approximately 30 seconds
after the ignition switch is placed in
the ACC or OFF position. However, if
the front doors are opened, the
Power Windows cannot be operated
even within the 30 second period.Information
• In cold and wet climates, power win-
dows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• Whilst driving with the rear win-
dows down or with the sunroof (if
equipped) opened (or partially
opened), your vehicle may demon-
strate a wind buffeting or pulsation
noise. This noise is normal and can
be reduced or eliminated by taking
the following actions. If the noise
occurs with one or both of the rear
windows down, partially lower both
front windows approximately 2.5
cm. If you experience the noise with
the sunroof open, slightly close the
sunroof.
Window opening and closing
To open:
Press the window switch down to the
first detent position (5). Release the
switch when you want the window to
stop.
To close:
Pull the window switch up to the first
detent position (5). Release the win-
dow switch when you want the win-
dow to stop.

To avoid serious injury or death,
do not extend your head, arms
or body outside the windows
whilst driving.
