The sunroof can be opened or closed
electrically only when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
Tilt Operation
The rear of the sunroof can be tilted open
to provide more ventilation.
To tilt, push the rear of the tilt switch.
To close, push the front of the tilt switch.
Sunroof
Extending the Head or Arms
Through the Sunroof:
Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the sunroof
is dangerous. The head or arms could
hit something while the vehicle is
moving. This could cause death or
serious injury. Don’t let passengers
stand up or extend anything through
the open sunroof while the vehicle is
moving.
Closing the Sunroof:
A closing sunroof is dangerous. The
hands, head, or even neck of a person
—especially a child—could be caught
in it as it closes, causing serious
injury or even death. Make sure the
opening is clear before closing the
sunroof.
