vides  a  means  of  escape  for  child ren  and  adults  in  the  event  they
become locked inside the trunk.
No  matter  how  careful  adults  mi ght  be  with  keys  and  locking  the ir
cars,  parents  should  be  aware  that  children  may  be  tempted  to  p lay
around vehicles and use the trunk as a hiding place.
Adults  are  advised  to  familiariz e  themselves  with  the  operation  and

WARNING
■Close the trunk lid, be sure  the seat backs are latched and do  not allow
children to play inside the vehicle
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving children in the vehicle w ith the keys is
dangerous.  Children  could  open  the  trunk  lid  and  climb  inside  r esulting  in
possible injury or death from heat exposure.
■ Always  keep  the  car  from  being  a  tempting  place  to  play  by  latc hing
the  rear  seats,  doors  and  the  tr unk,  and  keeping  the  keys  where   chil-
dren can not play with them
Leaving  children  or  animals  unattended  in  a  parked  vehicle  is  d angerous.
Babies left sleeping and children who lock themselves in cars o r trunks can
die  very  quickly  from  heat  prostration.  Do  not  leave  your  child ren  or  pets
alone in a car at any time. Do not leave the car, the rear fold ing seats or the

2-7. Windows
Power W indows
The  windows  can  be  opened/closed  by  operating  the  power  window
switches.
When driving with only one of the rear windows open, your ears might experi-
ence  a  resonating  sound.  However,  this  does  not  indicate  a  prob lem.  The
sound can be reduced by slightly opening a front window or by changing the
size of the rear window opening.
WARNING
■ Make sure the opening is clear before closing a window
Closing  a  power  window  is  dangerous.  A  person’s  hands,  head,  or   even
neck  could  be  caught  by  the  window  and  result  in  serious  injury   or  even
death. This warning applies especially to children.
■ Never allow children to play with power window switches
Power  window  switches  that  are  not  locked  with  the  power  window lock
switch  would  allow  children  to  operate  power  windows  unintentionally,
which could result in serious injury if a child’s hands, head o r neck becomes
caught by the window.
■ Make  sure  nothing  blocks  the  window  just  before  it  reaches  the  fully
closed position or while holding up the power window switch
Blocking the power window just before it reaches the fully clos ed position or
while holding up the power window switch is dangerous.
In  this  case,  the  jam-safe  function  cannot  prevent  the  window  f rom closing
all the way. If fingers are caught, serious injuries could occu r.

■ Opening/Closing windows
●A  power  window  may  no  longer  open/close  if  you  continue  to  press  the
