A side window will not work if it is blocked
with ice or if the battery needs charging. If you
cannot shut a door, do not force it or you could
damage the door or the side window.
Fix whatever is affecting the window before
trying to shut the door.

SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*

lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat-
tended in the vehicle, or with access to an
