Power windows

Power Window Switches

The control on the driver’s door has up/down switches that give you fingertip control of all four power win- dows.

There is a single window control on the front and rear passenger’s door trim panel, which operates the front and rear passenger door windows. The window controls will operate when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN or ACC position, and when the accessory delay feature is active.

WARNING! Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, and do not let children play with power windows. Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle. Occupants, particularly unattended children, can become en- trapped by the windows while operating the power window switches. Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death.

Auto Window Down — If Equipped

The front window controls on the driver and passenger door trim panels have an Auto-Down feature. These switches are labeled AUTO to indicate this capability. Push the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically. To open the window part way, push the window switch to the first detent and release it when you want the window to stop.

To cancel the Auto-Down movement, operate the switch either in the up or down direction and release the switch. For vehicles not equipped with the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), the power window switches will remain active for 45 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. Opening either door will cancel this feature. For vehicles equipped with EVIC, the power window switches will remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch is turned off. Opening either door will cancel this feature. The time for this feature is program- mable. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable Fea- tures)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further information.

Auto Window Up With Anti-Pinch Protection— If Equipped

Lift the window switch fully upward to the second detent, release, and the window will go up automatically. To cancel the Auto Up movement, operate the switch either in the up or down direction and release the switch. To close the window part way, lift the window switch to the first detent and release it when you want the window to stop.

NOTE:

• If the window runs into any obstacle during auto-

closure, the anti-pinch protection will reverse the window direction. Remove the obstacle and lift the window switch to close the window.

• Any impact due to rough road conditions may trigger the auto reverse function unexpectedly during auto- closure. If this happens, pull the switch lightly to the first detent and hold to close window manually.

WARNING! When the window is almost closed, there is no anti-pinch protection. To avoid personal injury, be sure to clear your arms, hands, fingers and all objects from the window path before closing.

Reset Auto Up

Should the Auto Up feature stop working, the window probably needs to be reset. To reactivate the Auto Up feature, pull the window switch up to close the window completely and continue to hold the switch up for an additional two seconds after the window is closed.

Window Lockout Switch

The window lockout switch on the driver’s door allows you to disable the window control on the other doors. To disable the window controls on the other doors, press the window LOCK button. To enable the window controls, press the window control button again.

Wind Buffeting

Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, then open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sun- roof opening to minimize the buffeting.
