mately one second, release, and the window will godown automatically. To cancel the Auto-Down move-
ment, operate the switch in either the up or down

rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize
the buffeting or open any window.

(RKE) transmitter or activate the power door lock
switches located on the front door handles.
