Windows
{WARNING
Leaving children, helpless adults,
or pets in a vehicle with the
windows closed is dangerous.
They can be overcome by the
extreme heat and suffer
permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Never leave a
child, a helpless adult, or a pet
alone in a vehicle, especially with
the windows closed in warm or
hot weather.
The vehicle aerodynamics are
designed to improve fuel economy
performance. This may result in a
pulsing sound when a window is
partially open. To reduce the sound,
open another window or the sunroof
(if equipped).

if caught in the path of a closing
window. Do not leave keys in a

possible to close the window with
the ignition in ON/RUN by holding
the window switch in the partially or
fully pulled up position. Release of
the switch from the partially pulled
up position will cause the window to

If the battery on the vehicle has
been recharged or disconnected,
or is not working, you will need to

for the express-up feature to work.
