Seat coolers (by air) (if equipped)
The seat coolers are provided to
cool the seats by blowing air through
small vent holes on the surface of the
seat cushions and seatbacks. When the operation of the seat cool-
er is not needed, keep the switches
in the OFF position.
While the engine is running, push the
switch to cool the seat.
Each time you push the switch, the
air flow changes as follows:
When pressing the switch for more than 1.5 seconds with the seat
cooler operating, the seat cooler
will turn OFF.
The seat coolers defaults to the OFF position whenever the Engine
Start/Stop button is turned to the
ON position.
Information
• If the outside temperature is under39°F (4°C), the seat cooler may not
operate.
• Use the seat cooler when the climate control system is on. Using the seat
cooler for prolonged periods of time
with the climate control system off
could cause the climate control seat
performance to be reduced.

The Engine Start/Stop button 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 driv-
er has a Power Window Lock switch
which can block the operation of pas-
senger windows. The power windows
will operate for approximately 30
seconds after the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the OFF position.
However, if the front doors are
opened, the Power Windows cannot
be operated even within the 30 sec-
ond period.
Information
• In cold and wet climates, power win-dows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• While driving with the rear win- dows down or with the sunroof (if
equipped) opened (or partially
opened), your vehicle may demon-
strate 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 one
inch. If you experience the noise
with the sunroof open, slightly close
the sunroof.
Window opening and closing
To open:
Press the window switch down to the
first detent position (5). Release the
switch when you want the window to
stop.
To close:
Pull the window switch up to the first
detent position (5). Release the win-
dow switch when you want the win-
dow to stop.
Auto up/down window
Pressing or pulling up the power win-
dow switch momentarily to the sec-
ond detent position (6) completely
lowers or lifts the window even when
the switch is released. To stop the
window at the desired position while
the window is in operation, pull up or
press down and release the switch.

Rear outlet vents (F)
The rear outlet vents are controlled by the rear climate control system.
However, external conditions and manual settings also have influences on the
actual operation of the rear outlet vents by blocking air flows or changing air
flow volumes.
The rear outlet vents may blow slightly cooler air when the heater is operat-
ing due to some heat loss through the air ducts from the front of the vehicle.
To prevent this, the rear outlet vents may not blow any air immediately after a
cold start when the outside temperature is detected to be extremely low in
winter and the engine has not sufficiently warmed up.
Side outlet vents (D)
G90 is equipped with temperature sensors inside the side outlet vents to
accurately measure and control air temperature both in the driver’s seat and
the front passenger’s seat. However, when the side outlet vents are closed,
the temperature sensor will measure air temperature only inside the side out-
let vents. For accurate temperature control, open the side outlet vents.
