BEFORE DRIVING
69TB-01E
NOTE:
• If only one of the rear windows is opened
during driving, a loud sound may be
heard. This happens because air pres-
sure near the opened window changes.
This is not a malfunction. This is the
same phenomenon as the sound is
heard when you blow your breath
against an empty bottle sideways. You
can reduce this sound with the rear win-
dow opened by the following operations:
– Open one of the front window as well.
– Change the opening range of the rear
window. For example, if you currently
open the rear window fully, open it
partly.
• If only one of the front windows is
opened during driving, a loud sound may
be heard, as described above. You can
reduce this sound with the front window
opened by the following operations:
– Open one of the rear windows as well.
– Change the opening range of the front
window. For example, if you currently
open the front window fully, open it
partly.
WARNING
• When opening or closing a window,
a part of body such as hands, legs
and neck may be caught by the
window and an accident may
occur. When you operate a window,
observe the following precautions:
– A driver and the other passen-
gers should be careful when
opening or closing a window.
– Do not allow a child to operate
the window switches.
– You should always lock the pas-
senger’s window operation when
there are children in the vehicle.
Children can be seriously injured
if they get part of their body
caught by the window during
operation. Refer to “Window lock
switch” (P.3-19) for details.
– When you leave your vehicle,
make sure to press the engine
switch to change the ignition
mode to OFF. Then, carry your
key with you and take a child or
children out of the vehicle.

WARNING
(Continued)
– When you open or close the front
passenger’s window or the rear
windows on the driver’s side,
check that the other passengers
and children do not take their
hands and faces outside the vehi-
cle, before the window operation.
Also, make sure to inform them
that you will perform the window
operation.
• When you operate the electric win-
dow controls from the outside of
the window, your hands or neck
may be caught by the window and
an accident may occur. Do not
operate the electric window con-
trols from the outside of the win-
dow.
CAUTION
If you touch a window glass when
opening or closing it, you may be
caught by it. This may cause per-
sonal injury.
When you open or close a window
glass, do not touch it.
NOTICE
If you open or close a window with
the engine stopped, the lead-acid bat-
tery may discharge.
To protect the lead-acid battery, open
or close a window with the engine
running.
