sion. Use the window lock switch to

pected use of the switches.

the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended children can be involved in
serious accidents.

switch on each door.

switch is in the “ON” position.
