Introduction

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.

Sections

  1. Open all the windows with the door lock
  2. Open all the windows with the remote transmitter
  3. Close all the windows with the door lock

    • 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.

    • To close all the windows at once, insert the ignition key in the driver's door lock.

    • Visually verify that no one, particularly children, have hands or other body parts in the windows when closing!

    • Turn the key counterclockwise once to lock the vehicle.

    • Release the key to the neutral position.

    • Turn and hold the key counterclockwise again.

    • The windows begin closing in 5 seconds.

    • It's not possible to close all the windows with the remote transmitter.

This guide is meant for the Honda CL9, sold as the Euro/JDM Accord or US Acura TSX. Your experience will undoubtedly differ with other makes and models. Consult your owners manual or local dealer.

This was very helpful. But I have a 2006 XLE Limited Toyota and it does not work. Any ideas as to why?

Different model car? Check hour car’s manual, or your Toyota dealer. ;)
