Before Driving

Windows

Power Windows

The ignition must be switched ON for the 

power windows to operate.

WARNING

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 with 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.

CAUTION

To prevent burning out the fuse and 

damaging the power window system, 

do not open or close more than three 

windows at once.

NOTE

A power window may no longer open/close 

if you continue to press the switch after 

fully opening/closing the power window. 

If the power window does not open/close, 

wait a moment and then operate the switch 

again.
