POWER WINDOWS (If Installed)
The power windows operate when the ignition key is in the "ON" position. The main switches are located on the driver's armrest and control the front (4/3 Door) and rear windows (4 Door) on both sides of the vehicle. The windows may be opened by depressing the appropriate window switch and closed by pulling up the switch. To open the window on the driver's side, press the switch (1) halfway down. The window moves as long as the switch is operated. To fully open the driver's window automatically, press the switch fully down.
In automatic operation, the window will fully open even if you let go of the switch. To stop at the desired opening, pull up and release the switch.
NOTE:
While driving with the rear windows down or with the sunroof (if installed) in an open (or partially open) position, your vehicle may demonstrate a wind buffeting or pulsation noise. This noise is a normal occurrence 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 one inch. If you experience the noise with the sunroof open, slightly reduce the size of the sunroof opening.
In order to prevent operation of the passenger front (4/3 Door) and rear windows (4 Door), a window lock switch (2) is provided on the armrest of the driver's door. To disable the power windows, press the window lock switch. To revert to normal operation, press the window lock switch a second time.
NOTE:
The power windows can be operated for 30 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ACC" or "LOCK" positions, or removed from the ignition switch. If the front doors are opened during this 30 second period, the power windows can no longer be operated without the ignition key turned to the "ON" position.
CAUTION:
o To prevent possible damage to the power window system, do not open or close two windows or more at the same time. This will also ensure the longevity of the fuse.
o Never try to operate the main switch on the driver's door and the individual door window switch in opposing directions at the same time. If this is done, the window will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
WARNING - WINDOWS
o NEVER leave the ignition key in the vehicle.
o NEVER leave any child unattended in the vehicle. Even very young children may inadvertently cause the vehicle to move, entangle themselves in the windows, or otherwise injure themselves or others.
o Always double check to make sure all arms, hands, head and other obstructions are safely out of the way before closing a window.
o Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keep the driver’s door power window lock switch in the LOCK position (depressed). Serious injury can result from unintentional window operation by the child.
o Do not extend any head or arms outside through the window opening while driving.
