Window opening and closing

You can open and close the windows using the power window switch.

Auto up/down window

OLQ2A045032

To open or close a window, press down or pull up the front portion of the corresponding switch to the first detent position (1).

Momentarily pressing down or pulling up the power window switch to the second position (2) completely lowers or raises the window, even when you release the switch. To stop the window at the desired position while it is moving, pull up or press down and release the switch.

To reset the power windows

If the power window does not operate normally, reset the automatic power window system as follows:

  1. Move the ENGINE START/STOP button to the ON position.

  2. Close the window and continue pulling up the power window switch for at least 1 second after the window is completely closed.

Automatic reversal

OLQ2A045033

If an object or part of the body blocks the upward movement of the window, the window will detect the resistance and stop moving up. The window will then move down approximately 11.8 inches (30 cm) to allow you to clear the object.

If the window detects resistance while you pull up the power window switch continuously, the window will stop moving up, then move down approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm).

If you pull up the power window switch continuously within 5 seconds after the automatic window reversal feature operates, the automatic window reversal feature will not operate again.

TIP

The automatic reverse feature for the window is only active when you use the “auto up” feature by fully pulling up the switch. The automatic reverse feature will not operate if you raise the window using the halfway position on the power window switch.

NOTE

To avoid injuries or vehicle damage, always check for obstructions before raising any window. If an object less than 0.16 inch (4 mm) in diameter is caught between the window glass and the upper window channel, the automatic reverse window may not detect the resistance and will not stop and reverse direction.

WARNING

The automatic reverse feature doesn’t activate while you reset the power window system. Make sure body parts or other objects are safely out of the way before closing the windows to avoid injuries.

NOTE

Do not install any accessories in the vehicle that extend into the open window area. Such objects could prevent the automatic reverse feature from functioning.
