    Some cars are fited with global drop which is for hot country's so you can drop all windows of your car to let in some cooler air just before you get in as they can get very hot if shut up in this heat

    Press your unlock button on remote, then press and hold same button for a few seconds 'til windows start to drop/open

    Press and hold lock button to shut windows

    This may or may not be on your car

            Never tried opening them by this process, but mine do close by holding the lock button.

              You also may find that if your front windows are open by 2 inches then you unlock and drop all windows when you use the lock button to close them the front windows will go back to where they were 2inches

                        Tried the Unlock today as it was pretty hot.
                        Nothing happened.:biggrin:

                        I'm just wondering if it can be programmed in, as I know you can change all kinds of things that the key fob can do.
                        For instance, one unlock and it only unlocks the drivers door, press it twice and it unlocks all the doors, but you need to set it up in some cases.
