Unhappy power windows

Finally I got my IS 250, my questions is how do you close the window when you open it with the remote. My GX470 you can open the window remotely and close it with the key. Please help.

You can't - Remote only lets you open the windows, not close em

you can still close it with the key -- you just need to take the good-looking cover off!

Oh, yeah, the -key- will close it, just not the remote... I dunno if it'd be faster (given removing the cover and replacing it) than just using the window controls on the door though.

What if you do not want to open the door again? I wish that you can hold the black button on the door **** and close it. I heard that the 08 can do this but I don't have any luck and I have the 08 model. Thanks!

Yea key will close it if you dont mind popping off a panel piece of your door handle everytime you want to close your windows from the outside. I just take it as no, you cant close the windows from the outside, only open them.

Um no. You can't raise the windows up with the remote on 08s.

It's a "safety feature" for US market ISes... same cars overseas you can put the windows up with the remote.
