The driver is responsible for all the power window operations, including the
operation for the passengers. In order to prevent accidental operation,

ating the power windows, operate the power window after checking to
make sure that there is no possibility of any passenger having any of their
body parts caught in the window. Also do not let a child operate window by
the wireless remote control, key or mechanical key. It is possible for chil-
dren and other passengers to get caught in the power window.

When exiting the vehicle, turn the engine switch off, carry the key and exit
the vehicle along with the child. There may be accidental operation, due to
