    3. Check that the AUTO DOWN operates and the door glass is fully opened when each window switch of the regulator master switch assembly is turned DOWN by double-shift.
    4. Check that the AUTO UP operates and the door glass is fully closed when the window switch of each regulator switch assembly is turned UP by double-shift.
    5. Check that the AUTO DOWN operates and the door glass is fully opened when the window switch of each regulator switch assembly is turned DOWN by double-shift.

    7. Check that the door glass stops when the applicable switch is turned DOWN during the AUTO UP operation. (However, if the switch is kept in the DOWN side, it will transfer to the manual operation.)
  3. CHECK OPERATION FUNCTION AFTER KEY-OFF 
    1. After turning the ignition switch from ON to OFF, check that each door glass can be operated via the switch of the regulator master switch assembly, and check that the operation becomes impossible once the driver's door is opened then closed.
    2. When approximately 45 seconds have elapsed after the ignition switch is turned from ON to OFF, check that the window switch of the regulator master switch assembly will be unable to operate the door glass.
    3. After turning the ignition switch from ON to OFF with the driver's door open, check that the AUTO UP or DOWN operation keeps working to the fully-closed or fully-opened position even if the door is closed during the AUTO operation. Also, check that the power window operation becomes impossible after the operations have done.
  4. CHECK WIRELESS OPERATION 
    1. With all the doors closed, have no key inserted in the ignition key cylinder.
    2. Check that each door glass moves down when the UNLOCK switch of the transmitter is kept pressing for 2.5 seconds or more. Also, check that the door glass stops when the UNLOCK switch is turned off.
    3. Check that each door glass moves up when the LOCK switch of the transmitter is kept pressing for 2.5 seconds or more. Also, check that the door glass stops when the LOCK switch is turned off.
  5. CHECK OPERATION FUNCTION BY DRIVER'S DOOR KEY OPERATION (OPERATION INTERLOCKED WITH KEY)

    2. Check that each door glass moves up when the door lock cylinder is held in the LOCK position for 2 seconds or more by the key operation. Also, check that the door glass stops when the door lock cylinder is turned back to the neutral position.
  6. CHECK JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION 
    NOTE:
    • Never check it with any part of your body such as hand caught between the glass and the vehicle's body. Also, pay thorough attention not to get caught in there during the operation.
    • In case of resetting the power window regulator motor assembly, check should be carried out after repeating to raise and lower the door glass several times by the AUTO operation.
