Side View Mirrors
ODN8059024
Make sure to adjust the side view mirrors
to your desired position before you begin driving.
Your vehicle is equipped with both
left-hand and right-hand side view
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted
remotely with the remote switch. The
side view mirrors can be folded to help
prevent damage when going through
an automatic car wash or when passing
through a narrow street.
The right side view mirror is convex.
Objects seen in the mirror are closer than
they appear.
Use the inside rear view mirror or look
back directly to determine the actual
distance of other vehicles prior to changing lanes.
WARNING
Do not adjust or fold the side view
mirrors while driving. This may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
NOTICE
• Do not scrape ice off the mirror face;
this may damage the surface of the glass.
• If the mirror is jammed with ice, do
not adjust the mirror by force. Use an
approved spray de-icer (not radiator
antifreeze) spray, or a sponge or soft
cloth with very warm water, or move
the vehicle to a warm place and
allow the ice to melt.

Power Windows
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 passenger windows.
The power windows will operate for
approximately 30 seconds after the
ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
LOCK/OFF position. However, if the front
doors are opened, the Power Windows
will not operate even within the 30 second period.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, do not
extend your head, arms or body outside
the windows while driving.
Information
• In cold and wet climates, power
windows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if equipped)
opened (or partially opened), your vehicle may demonstrate 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 (1 inch). If you
experience the noise with the sunroof
open, slightly close the sunroof. Window opening and closing

normally, the automatic power window
system must be reset as follows:
1. Place the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Close the window and continue pulling up on the power window
switch for at least one second.

activate while resetting the power
window system. Make sure body parts
or other objects are safely out of the
way before closing the windows to
avoid injuries or vehicle damage. Automatic reverse (if equipped)
ODN8059032
If a window senses any obstacle while it
is closing automatically, it will stop and
lower approximately 30 cm (12 inches) to
allow the object to be cleared.
If the window detects the resistance
while the power window switch is
pulled up continuously, the window
will stop upward movement then lower
approximately 2.5 cm (1 inch).
If the power window switch is pulled
up continuously again within 5 seconds
after the window is lowered by the
automatic window reverse feature,
the automatic window reverse will not
operate.
Information
The automatic reverse feature is only
active when the “Auto Up” feature is used by fully pulling up the switch to the second detent.
WARNING
Make sure body parts or other objects
are safely out of the way before closing
the windows to avoid injuries or vehicle damage.
Objects less than 4 mm (0.16 inch) in
diameter caught between the window
glass and the upper window channel
may not be detected by the automatic

may not work properly due to freezing conditions.
• After the vehicle is washed or in a
rainstorm, be sure to wipe off any
water that is on the sunroof before operating it.
WARNING

while driving. This could result in
loss of control and an accident that
may cause death, serious injury, or
property damage.

any other body parts or objects are
out of the way before operating the
sunroof.
• Do not extend your head, arms or
body outside the sunroof while
driving, to avoid serious injury.
• Do not leave the engine running
and the key in your vehicle with
unsupervised children. Unattended
children could operate the sunroof,
which could result in serious injury.

control lever after the sunroof is fully
opened, closed, or tilted. Damage
to the motor or system components
could occur.
