 Before driving with a child in the vehicle,
be sure to lock the window switch to make
it inoperative. Children tampering with
the switch could easily trap their hands or
heads in the window.

Safety mechanism (Driver's
door window only)
If a hand or head is trapped, for safety the
door window is automatically lowered a little.
After the obstruction is removed, pull up the
switch again to close the door window.
WARNING
 If the 12 V starter battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric win-
dow is replaced, the safety mechanism will
be canceled.
If a hand or head got trapped, a serious
injury could result.
CAUTION
 The safety mechanism is deactivated just
before the door window closes. This allows
the door window to close completely. There-
fore be especially careful that fingers are not
trapped in the door window opening.
5-40 Features and controls
CAUTION
 The safety mechanism is deactivated while
the switch is pulled up. Therefore be espe-
cially careful that fingers are not trapped in
the door window opening.
 Do not deliberately trap your hands or head
in order to activate the safety mechanism.
Your hand or head could be trapped and per-
sonal injury could result.
NOTE
N00528801187
 The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the door window to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by
trapped hand or head.
 If the 12 V starter battery terminals are dis-
connected or the fuse for power window is
replaced, the safety mechanism will be can-
celed and the door window will not automat-
ically open/close completely.
If the window is open, repeatedly raise the
driver's door window switch until the win-
dow has been fully closed.
Following this, release the switch, raise the
switch once again and hold it in this condi-
tion for at least 1 second, then release it. You
should now be able to operate the driver's
door window in the normal function.
What to do if you hear wind
buffeting when driving
Wind buffeting can be described as the per-
ception of pressure on the ears or a booming
or rumbling sound. Your vehicle may exhibit
wind buffeting when driving with one or both
rear door windows down or partially opened.
This is a normal occurrence that can be mini-
mized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
door windows open, open the front door win-
dows as well as the rear door windows to
minimize the condition.
Sunroof
(if so equipped)
The sunroof can be opened and closed with
the operation mode in ON.
