Power windows
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. The driv-
er 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
second period.
In cold and wet climates, power windows
may not work properly due to freezing
conditions.

is a normal occurrence and can be
reduced or eliminated by taking the fol-
lowing actions. If the noise occurs with

ence the noise with the sunroof open,
