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 driver has a power
window lock switch which can block
the operation of rear passenger win-
dows.
The power windows can be operated
for approximately 30 seconds after
engine is turned off. However, if the
front doors are opened, the power
windows cannot be operated even
within the 30 second period.
If the window cannot be closed
because it is blocked by objects,
remove the objects and close the
window.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof 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 tak-
ing the following actions. If the noise
occurs with one or both of the rear
windows down, partially lower both
front windows approximately one
inch (2.5 cm). If you experience the
noise with the sunroof open, slightly
reduce the size of the sunroof open-
ing.
Window opening and closing
The driver’s door has a master power
window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle.
To open or close a window, press
down or pull up the front portion of
the corresponding switch to the first
detent position (5).

Do not install any accessories
in the vehicle that extend into

function of the Automatic rever-
sal "jam protection" feature.

Auto up/down window (if equipped)
Pressing or pulling up the power win-
dow switch momentarily to the second
detent position (6) completely lowers
or raises the window even when the
switch is released. To stop the window
at the desired position while the win-
dow is in operation, pull up or press
down and release the switch.If the power window does not operate
normally, the automatic power win-
dow system must be reset as follows:
1. Press the ENGINE START/STOP
button twice to the ON position.
2. Close the driver's and passenger's
window and continue pulling up
the driver’s power window switch
for at least 1 second after the win-
dow is completely closed.
Automatic reversal
(for Auto up/down window)
If the upward movement of the win-
dow is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the window will detect the
resistance and will stop upward
movement. The window will then
lower approximately 11.8 in. (30 cm)
to allow the object to be cleared.
The distance may vary based on the
size or position of the window. If the
window detects the resistance while
the power window switch is pulled up
continuously, the window will stop
upward movement then lower
approximately 1 in. (2.5 cm).

window switches on the passenger
doors by pressing the power win-
dow lock button located on the dri-
ver’s door to the LOCK position

WARNING
Always check for obstructions
before raising any window to
avoid injuries or vehicle dam-
age. If an object less than 0.16
in. (4 mm) in diameter is caught
between the window glass and
the upper window channel, the
automatic reverse window may
not detect the resistance and
will not stop and reverse direc-
tion.
WARNING
The automatic reverse feature
doesn’t activate while resetting
power window system. Make
sure body parts or other objects
are safely out of the way before
closing the windows to avoid
injuries or vehicle damage.
CAUTION
When the window or door is
freezing at very low temperature
in winter, the window closing
may not properly work during
one-touch closing operation. It
may happen during the vehicle
vibration such as passing a
speed bump. Because the win-
dow may incorrectly detects as
an object jammed in the win-
dow, close the window by manu-
ally if possible.

✽ ✽
NOTICE
When refueling on unlevel ground,
the fuel gauge may not point to the F
position.

(Continued)
Static electricity discharge can
ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must reen-
ter the vehicle, you should once
again eliminate potentially dan-
gerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the
fuel filler neck, nozzle or other
gasoline source.WARNING- Portable fuel
container
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete. Use
only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to
carry and store gasoline.WARNING- Fire/explo-
sion risk
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station facili-
ty. Failure to follow all warnings
may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death
due to fire or explosion.
WARNING- Static
electricity
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touch-
ing another metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing
or sliding against any item or
fabric (polyester, satin, nylon,
etc.) capable of producing static
electricity.
