Power Windows
The windows can be opened/closed by operating the power window switches.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the opening is clear before closing a window:
Closing a power window is dangerous. A person's hands, head, or even neck could be caught
by the window and result in serious injury or even death. This warning applies especially to
children.
Never allow children to play with power window switches:
Power window switches that are not locked wi th the power window lock switch would allow
children to operate power windows unintentionally , which could result in serious injury if a
child's hands, head or neck becomes caught by the window.
Make sure nothing blocks the window just before it reaches the fully closed position or while
fully holding up the power window switch:
Blocking the power window just before it reach es the fully closed position or while fully
holding up the power window switch is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function cannot prevent the window from closing all the way. If
fingers are caught, serious injuries could occur.
NOTE
When driving with only 1 of the rear windows open, your ears might experience a
resonating sound. However, this does not indicate a problem. The sound can be reduced by
slightly opening a front window or by changi ng the size of the rear window opening.
