The power window is standard equipment on the front doors and optionally available for
the rear doors. The power window has the following features.
New window glass regulator has been installed to the front doors.
The new power window system is adopted. The system enables to open the power window
even if the vehicle is submerged.
The power window main switch can operate each of the power windows by one-touch
down operation.
The power window timer function is adopted.
The power window lock switch is adopted.
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE AND OPERATION
FRONT DOOR POWER WINDOW REGULATOR
The window glasses smoothly slide up and down along the front and rear sashes.
The window glass is supported by two carrier plates. This structure assures high
rotational rigidity in the cross direction and prevents the vibration of the window glass during
operation.
POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
The power window main switch has a waterproofing structure which prevents water (such
as rain drops) from entering from above. Should water enter, it is drained through the hole
located on the lower area of the switch, and no water may be accumulated.
POWER WINDOW SWITCH
The power window switch employs the push-pull operation method to improve safety. To close
a door window glass, press in the switch knob, and to open, pull it up. The one-touch mechanism
is adopted to the driver’s power window switch to fully down any door window glass
in a single operation.
POWER WINDOW LOCK SWITCH
The driver power window switch is equipped with the lock switch. This switch inhibits
the opening/closing operation of the door window glass by the front passenger’s
power window switch or rear power window switches.
POWER WINDOW TIMER FUNCTION
The power window can be opened or closed by a timer function
after the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position (The timer delay is extended for 30
seconds if the driver’s door is opened while the timer is on. The timer operation,
however, is cancelled when the driver’s door is closed before the timer ends). Using
an customise function*, the timer delay can be changed between 10 - 80 seconds.
The initial setting at factory is 30 seconds.
The ETACS-ECU turns on the power window relay and the power window switch acceptance permission
signal when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. After the ignition switch is turned
to the OFF position, the ETACS-ECU continues turning on the power window switch acceptance permission
signal for 30 seconds. During this period, the power window can be operated by the power window
switch. The power window relay turns OFF 30 seconds after the power window switch acceptance
permission signal is turned OFF. If the driver’s door is opened during the timer operation,
the reception permit signal is kept ON for 30 seconds from that time. However, when the driver’s
door is closed, the reception permit signal is turned OFF at the same time. The power window
relay turns OFF 30 seconds after the power window switch acceptance permission signal is turned
OFF.
note
* Using an customise function, the power window timer delay can be changed. This
is done by using the M.U.T.-III.
