You can still use the electric power
windows for up to 15 minutes, as long
as no one opens any of the front doors.

When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the ignition key from the

lock and remember to close the doors
to prevent children from operating the
power windows and injuring them-
selves, etc.

Safety feature

The front windows are each equipped
with contact strips located in the upper
window frames. If pressure is exerted
against this contact strip while a
window is being raised, the system will
respond by stopping the window and
then retracting it a small distance.

Despite this safety feature, be
extremely careful to ensure that

the closing path of the window is not
obstructed. Some types of objects
might fail to trigger the contact strip in
some situations (very thin objects, for
instance). You can override this safety
feature by pressing the switch beyond
the resistance point and holding it.
