Power window timer function
Even after the ignition is switched off, the ETACS-ECU keeps the power window relay activated for approximately 30 seconds, enabling raising and lowering of the power windows by using the power window switches. After approximately 30 seconds, the power window relay is deactivated.
During this timed operation, if the driver or passenger doors are opened, the power window relay is deactivated from that moment.

OPERATION
When the power window (main or sub) switch is operated, the door windows will open or close. This system has the following operations and features:
- A power window lock switch on the power window main switch prevents the door window glass from opening/closing with the front passenger's and rear power window sub switch.
- The power window of the door window glass can be opened/closed for 30 seconds with the timer function after the ignition switch is turned OFF. (The timer expires if the front door [LH or RH] is opened when the timer is in operation).
- The power window main switch contains a one-touch down switch that will automatically open the driver's side door window only.
