Moonroof (if equipped)

WARNING

Never let anyone’s hands, arms, head or any objects protrude

from the moonroof. He/she could be seriously injured if the

vehicle stops suddenly or turns sharply or if the vehicle is in-

volved in an accident.

To avoid serious personal injury caused by entrapment, you must

observe the following warnings:

D Before closing the moonroof, make sure that no one’s hands,

arms, head or other objects will be accidentally caught in the

moonroof.

D Before leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the

ignition switch for safety and never allow an unattended child to

remain in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result

in injury to a child operating the moonroof.

CAUTION

D Do not sit on the edge of the open moonroof.

D Do not operate the moonroof if falling snow or extremely cold

conditions have caused it to freeze shut.

J Tilting/sliding moonroof (Sedan)

B To raise or lower the moonroof

The tilting function will only operate when the moonroof is fully closed.

Push the rear side of the “Tilt” switch to raise the moonroof.

Push the front side of the “Tilt” switch to lower the moonroof.

Release the switch after the moonroof has been raised or has been

lowered completely. Pushing the switch continuously may cause dam-

age to the moonroof.

B To open or close the moonroof

Push the “Open/Close” switch rearward to open the moonroof. The

sun shade will be also opened together with the moonroof.

Push the “Open/Close” switch forward to close the moonroof. The

moonroof will stop halfway if you continue to press on the switch.

Release the switch once and push it again to close the moonroof

completely.

After washing the vehicle or after it rains, wipe away water on the roof

prior to opening the moonroof to prevent water drops from falling into

the passenger compartment.

NOTE

If the moonroof cannot be closed through the switch operation

because of system failure, it can be closed manually using a hex-

headed wrench. For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof — if the

moonroof cannot be closed” in Chapter 9 “In case of emer-

2-32

gency”.
