Some of the items above are available on certain models only.
Shiftlock (automatic transmission only)
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the (P)ark position. To release the selector from this position,
turn the ignition key to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, press the button on the front side of the
gear selector and move the selector from (P)ark.
If it is necessary to manually override the shiftlock system:
Turn the starting (ignition) key to position I
Press firmly on the "SHIFTLOCK OVERRIDE" button located near the base of the gear selector.
While holding the override button down, press the button on the front of the gear selector.
Move the gear selector from the ( P)ark position.
Keylock (automatic transmission only)
This means that when you switch off the ignition, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the starting
(ignition) key can be removed from the ignition switch.

pg. 41 Sun roof (option)

Sliding sun roof
Electrically-operated sun roof
The switch for operating the sun roof is located on the instrument panel. The starting (ignition) key must first be turned
to the drive position (position II). The sun roof is also equipped with a one -touch, AUTO-open function.
AUTO-open: Press the lower section of the switch once to automatically open the sun roof. The AUTO-open
function can be stopped at any time by pressing the switch.
To close the sun roof: Depress the upper section of the switch until the sun roof has closed completely.

Sun visor
To open the rear edge of the sun roof (ventilation position) : With the sun roof closed, depress the upper section
of the switch. To close, depress the lower section of the switch until the sun roof has closed completely.
To slide open the sun roof: Depress the lower section of the switch until the sun roof has opened to the position
you prefer or hold the switch until the sun roof reaches the "comfort position"*. Depress the lower section of the
switch again to open the sun roof completely.
* A position where the sun roof is not quite fully open. This position helps alleviate "rumbling" wind noise.
