Can my key fob roll my windows down?

This is a documented but easily forgotten function of the car. It's handy if you want to let hot air out of the vehicle as you walk up to it.

Warning: unlocking the car and opening windows from a distance makes it vulnerable to thieves, even carjackers. Practice situational awareness and enforce personal safety at all times.

• Insert the ignition key in the driver's door lock.

• Turn the key clockwise to unlock.

• Hold the key in this position for 5 seconds.

• All the windows begin rolling down. Releasing the key to the neutral position stops the windows.





• Press the door unlock button on the remote transmitter.

• Press and hold the door unlock button on the remote transmitter a second time.

• All the windows roll down simultaneously. Releasing the button stops the windows where they are.

• If you press and hold the unlock button again within 10 seconds, the windows continue rolling down further.

• Hold the button down for only a moment to crack the windows a few inches.
