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.
