Hyundai Equus: Power Windows

The Engine Start/Stop Button must be in the ON position to be able to raise or lower the windows.

Each door has a Power Window switch to control that door's window. The driver has a Power Window Lock switch which can block the operation of passenger windows. The power windows will operate for approximately 30 seconds after the Engine Start/Stop Button is placed in the ACC or LOCK position. However, if the front doors are opened, the Power Windows cannot be operated even within the 30 second period.

WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death, do not extend your head, arms or body outside the windows while driving.

✽ NOTICE

While driving with the rear windows down or with the sunroof (if equipped) in an open (or partially open) position, your vehicle may demonstrate a wind buffeting or pulsation noise. This noise is a normal occurrence and can be reduced or eliminated by taking the following actions. If the noise occurs with one or both of the rear windows down, partially lower both front windows approximately one inch. If you experience the noise with the sunroof open, slightly reduce the size of the sunroof opening.

Window Opening and Closing

To open:

Press the window switch down to the first detent position (5). Release the switch when you want the window to stop.

To close:

Pull the window switch up to the first detent position (5). Release the window switch when you want the window to stop.

Auto Up/Down Window

Pressing or pulling up the power window switch momentarily to the second detent position (6) completely lowers or raises the window even when the switch is released. To stop the window at the desired position while the window is in operation, pull up or press down and release the switch.

To Reset the Power Windows

If the power windows do not operate normally, the automatic power window system must be reset as follows:

1. Press the Engine Start/Stop Button twice to the ON position.
2. Close the windows and continue pulling up on the power window switch for at least one second.

If the power windows do not operate properly after resetting, have the system checked by a EQUUS dealer.

Automatic Reverse

If a window senses any obstacle while it is closing automatically, it will stop and lower approximately 12 in (30 cm) to allow the object to be cleared.

If the window detects the resistance while the power window switch is pulled up continuously, the window will stop upward movement then lower approximately 1 in (2.5 cm).

If the power window switch is pulled up continuously again within five seconds after the window is lowered by the automatic window reversal feature, the automatic window reversal will not operate.

✽ NOTICE

The automatic reverse feature for the driver’s window is only active when the “auto up” feature is used by fully pulling up the switch. The automatic reverse feature will not operate if the window is raised using the halfway position on the power window switch.

WARNING

Make sure heads, other body parts or other objects are safely out of the way before closing the windows to avoid injuries or vehicle damage. Objects less than 0.16 in. (4 mm) in diameter caught between the window glass and the upper window channel may not be detected by the automatic reverse window and the window will not stop and reverse direction.

Rear Door Window Curtains (if equipped)

For each of the rear doors, you can fold or unfold the rear door window curtain by using the power window switch on each rear door. Both rear curtains can also be operated from the switches on the driver’s door.

To unfold:

1. Close the window by pulling up the switch.
2. To set up the curtain, pull up the switch once more.

To fold:

1. If you want to open the curtained window, push down the switch one time to store the curtain.
2. Push down the switch one more time to open the window.

✽ NOTICE

If the upward or downward movement of the curtain is blocked by an object or part of the body, the curtain will detect the resistance and will stop movement and move downward or upward.

CAUTION

Do not apply excessive force while operating the window curtain. This could cause damage to the window curtain.

✽ NOTICE

The rear door window curtain may not operate normally, when the temperature in the vehicle is lower than 5°F (-15°C).

To Reset the Rear DoorWindow Curtains

If the window curtain is not operating correctly, it must be reset as follows:

1. Press the Engine Start/Stop Button to the ON position.
2. Close the window curtain by pressing the power window switch to the first detent position and continue pulling up the switch for at least 10 seconds.

If the window curtain doesn't work properly after following the above procedure, have the system checked by an authorized EQUUS dealer.

Power Window Lock Button

The driver can disable the power window switches on the rear passengers’ doors by pressing the power window lock switch. The indicator will be illuminated.

When the power window lock switch indicator is illuminated :

• The driver’s master control can operate all the power windows.
• The front passenger’s control can operate the front passenger’s power window.
• The rear passenger’s control cannot operate the rear passenger’s power window.

WARNING

Do not allow children to play with the power windows. Keep the driver’s door power window lock switch in the LOCK position (indicator illuminating). Serious injury or death can result from unintentional window operation by a child.

CAUTION

• To prevent possible damage to the power window system, do not open or close two windows or more at the same time. This will also ensure the  longevity of the fuse.
• Never try to operate the main switch on the driver's door and the individual door window switch in opposing directions at the same time. If this is done, the window will stop and cannot be opened or closed.
