(II) position to raise or lower either
window. To open a window, push the
switch down and hold it. Release the
switch when you want the window to
stop. Pull back on the switch and
hold it to close the window.
Closing a power window on
someone's hands or fingers can
cause serious injury.
Make sure your passengers are
away from the window before
closing them.
AUTO - To open/close the driver's
window, push the window switch
firmly down or up to the second

the way. To stop the window, pull/
push on the window switch briefly.

themselves by operating the
passenger's window unintentionally.
AUTO REVERSE - If the driver's
window senses any obstacle while it is
closing automatically, it will reverse
direction, and then stop. To close the
window, remove the obstacle, then use
the window switch again.
If your vehicle's battery is disconnected
or goes dead, or the driver's window
fuse is removed, the AUTO function
may be disabled. If this happens, the
power window system will need to be
reset after reconnecting the battery or
installing the fuse.

hold the driver's window switch until
the window is fully open.
2. Pull and hold the driver's window
switch to close the window
completely, then hold the switch for
about 2 seconds.
If the power windows do not operate
properly after resetting, have your
vehicle checked by your dealer.

Accessory Power Sockets
Your vehicle has one, two, or three
accessory power sockets, depending
on the model. All models have a front
accessory power socket on the
dashboard above the glove box.
EX and SC models have an accessory
power socket in the cargo area on
the passenger's side.
The SC model has one additional
socket in the center console.
These sockets are intended to supply
power for 12 volt DC accessories that
are rated 120 watts or less (10 amps).
None of the sockets will power an

power rating of the accessories
should be 120 watts or less (10
amps).
Glove Box

bottom of the handle. Close it with a
firm push. Lock or unlock the glove
box with the master key.
An open glove box can cause
serious injury to your passenger
