POWER SUNROOF — IF EQUIPPED

The power sunroof control switch is located in the front  
overhead console. The sunroof panel tilts upward at the  
rear for ventilation or slides rearward under the roof.  
Opening the Sunroof Manually  
Press the switch rearward and hold, and the sunroof will  
open automatically from any position. The sunroof will  
open fully, then stop automatically. During this opera-  
tion, any release of the sunroof switch will stop the  
sunroof.  
WARNING!  
In an accident, there is greater risk of being thrown  
from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could also  
be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your  
seat belt properly and make sure all passengers are  
properly secured too.

Wind Buffeting  
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of  
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the  
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the  
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain  
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur-  
rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with  
the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows  
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs  
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to  
minimize the buffeting or open any window.  
Sunroof Maintenance  
Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean  
the glass panel.
