the power trunk, it may not open auto-
matically. After remove the obstacle, try

✽NOTICE
• The power trunk can be operated
when the engine is not running.
However the power trunk operation
consumes large amounts of vehicle

it excessively e.g.: more than approxi-
mately 10 times repeatedly.

charged, do not leave the power trunk
in the open position for a long lime.

not operate the power trunk. This
could cause the power trunk to oper-
ate improperly.
Automatic stop and reversal
If, during power opening or closing, the
trunk is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the power trunk will detect the
resistance, and it will stop movement or
move to the full open position to allow the
object to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such
as from an object that is thin or soft, or
the trunk is near the latched position, the
automatic stop and reversal may not
detect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
trunk is forced by a strong impact, the
automatic stop and reversal may oper-
ate.
WARNING
Never leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle.
Children or animals might operate
the power trunk that could result in
injury to themselves or others, or

Power windows
The engine start/stop button must be in
the ON position for power windows to
operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls the door's window. The driv-

down or with the sunroof (if equipped)
in an open (or partially open position),
your vehicle may demonstrate a wind
buffeting or pulsation noise. This
noise is a normal occurrence and can be
reduced or eliminated by taking the fol-
lowing actions. If the noise occurs with
one or both of the rear windows down,
partially lower both front windows
approximately one inch. If you expe-
rience the noise with the sunroof open,

in.) to allow the object to be cleared.
If the window detects the resistance
while the power window switch is pulled
up continuously, the window will stop
upward movement then lower approxi-
mately 2.5 cm (1 in.). And if the power
window switch is pulled up continuously

ance and will not stop and reverse
direction.
