not let children play with power windows. Do not
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location
accessible to children, and do not leave the ignition of
a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the

To stop the window from going all the way down during
the auto-down operation, pull up on the switch briefly.
The power window switches will remain active for up to 10
minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF. Opening

standing Your Instrument Panel” for further information.

either by climbing into the trunk from outside, or
through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the
trunk lid when your vehicle is unattended. Once in the
trunk, young children may not be able to escape, even
if they entered through the rear seat. If trapped in the
trunk, children can die from suffocation or heat stroke.

lever is built into the trunk latching mechanism. In the
event of an individual being locked inside the trunk, the
