Yes, it's buried somewhere in the instruction manual. The key's gotta be aimed right at the IR sensor on one of the doors. The lock button's pressed once to lock, and then the lock button's pressed and held. By the time I do all that, it's just faster to close everything before shutting off the engine (one-touch windows and sunroof are great).

Someone here on the forums helped me with this subject not too long ago.

Thumbs up Close/open windows using smart key

I do this all the time. What you need to do is aim your smart key one to two feet from driver/passanger side IR square located on the door handles (outside). Depress the door lock or open button down (on smart key) until the doors/sun roof opens/closes. Sometimes you have to aim smart key closer to door handles if it does not work the first time. If you use wax on your car you need to be careful not to cover IR indicator because it will cause problems. Good Luck!
