To open a window, push the top part of the
switch. To close the window, lift up the top
part of the switch.
The driver’s window has AUTO-DOWN

drive-through restaurants, for example).
This means the driver can open or close
the window without holding the window
switch in DOWN or UP position. Press

completely and release it. To stop the win-
dow before it reaches the FULL-DOWN or
FULL-UP position, pull up or push down

operating any of the switches (2), (3), (4)
or (5). To restore normal operation, release
the lock switch by pushing it again.
NOTE:
If you drive with one of the rear windows
open, you may hear a loud sound caused
by air vibration. To reduce the sound, open
the driver’s or front passenger’s window, or
narrow the rear window opening.
Pinching prevention function (if equipped)If the driver’s window has the AUTO-UP
feature, the driver’s window is also
equipped with the pinching prevention
function. This function detects a foreign
object that is caught in the window as it is
being closed by AUTO-UP feature, which
allows you to close the window without
holding the window switch in UP position,
and stops the window from closing to pre-
vent damage. NOTE:
Even if you cannot close the window by the
AUTO-UP feature because there may be
something wrong with the pinching preven-
tion function, you can close the window by
holding the window switch in UP position.
If you drive in extreme off-road condition,
the pinching prevention function may oper-
ate accidentally because the window
reacts to vehicle jolting.
Pinching prevention function initializa-
tion
When you disconnect and reconnect the
lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the
function will be deactivated. In this condi-
tion, the AUTO-DOWN feature will be
deactivated, while the AUTO-UP feature
may remain activated. The pinching pre-
vention function needs to be initialized.

back forward and backward to check that it
is securely latched.
NOTICE
• When returning the rear seatback to the normal position, check that there
is nothing around the striker. Any
