Features of your vehicle
Emergency trunk safety releaseYour vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency trunk release cable located inside
the trunk. The lever glows in the dark
when the trunk lid is closed. If someone
is inadvertently locked in the trunk,
pulling this handle will release the trunk
latch mechanism and open the trunk.
WARNING
No one should be allowed to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or total-
ly latched and the person is unable
to get out, severe injury or death
could occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of exposure to
cold weather conditions. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous location
in the event of a crash because it is
not a protected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’s crush
zone.
CAUTION
If a person is locked in the trunk,
they can pull the emergency
release to open the trunk lid.
We recommend that cars be kept
locked and keys be kept out of
the reach of children, and that
parents teach their children about
the dangers of playing in trunks.

The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls the door’s window. However,
the driver has a power window lock
switch which can block the operation of
passenger windows.
The power windows can be operated for
approximately 30 seconds after the igni-
tion key is removed or turned to the ACC
or LOCK position. However, if the front
doors are opened, the power windows
cannot be operated even within the 30
seconds after the ignition key removal.
While driving, if you notice buffeting and
pulsation (wind shock) with either side
window open, you should open the oppo-
site window slightly to reduce the condi-
tion.
Window opening and closingThe driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the win-
dows in the vehicle.
To open or close a window, press down
or pull up the front portion of the corre-
sponding switch to the first detent posi-
tion (5).Auto down window (if equipped)
(driver’s window)Depressing the power window switch
momentarily to the second detent posi-
tion (6) completely lowers the driver’s
window even when the switch is
released. To stop the window at the
desired position while the window is in
operation, pull up the switch momentarily
to the opposite direction of the window
movement.
(Continued)
Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door and
the individual door window
switch in opposing directions at

window will stop and cannot be
opened or closed.

side through the window opening
while driving.
