Power Windows
The ignition switch 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 win-
dow. The driver has a Power Window
Lock switch which can block the opera-
tion of passenger windows. The power
windows will operate for approximately
30 seconds after the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. However, if the front doors are
opened, the Power Windows cannot be
operated even within the 30 second peri-
od.
Information
• In cold and wet climates, power win-dows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• While driving with the rear windows down or with the sunroof (if equipped)
opened (or partially opened), your vehi-
cle may demonstrate 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 win-
dows approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm). If
you experience the noise with the sun-
roof open, slightly close the sunroof.
