Main Menu Table Of Contents Power Windows DRIVER'S WINDOW SWITCH Closing a power window on someone's hands or fingers can cause serious injury. Make sure your passenger is away from the window before closing it. MAIN SWITCH Turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position to raise or lower either window. To open the 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. AUTO To open/close the driver's window, push the window switch firmly down or up to the second detent, and release it. The window will automatically go up or down all the way. To stop the window, pull/ push on the window switch briefly. If the MAIN switch is OFF, the passenger's window cannot be raised or lowered. Keep the MAIN switch off when you have children in the vehicle so they do not injure 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. 1. Start the engine. Push down and 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. Instruments and Controls 91 2008 Element
