If the vehicle has previously been cen-
trally locked with the SmartKey, open-
ing a door from the inside will trigger

lowing:

Opening a door causes the windows on
that side of the car to open slightly.
They will return to the up position when
the door is closed.
!
The side windows will not open or close
if the battery is discharged or the win-
dows are covered with ice. As a result,
you may no longer be able to properly
close the door. Do not attempt to force
the door shut. Doing so may damage
the door or the side window. Correct
the condition that prevents the
windows from operating before
attempting to close the door.
!
When the trunk lid is lifted slightly, it
swings open upwards automatically.
Always make sure there is sufficient
overhead clearance.
