2004 NISSAN SENTRA child restraint

MANUAL WINDOWS
The side windows can be opened or closed by
turning the hand crank on each door.
ELECTRIC SUNROOF
This sunroof only operates with the ignition
switch in the ON position.
NOTE:
If the battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, the sunroof may not operate cor-
rectly, and must be reset.
From any sunroof position (full open, partially
open, closed, partially vented and vented) , push
and hold the button in the forward position until
the sunroof vents in the full-up position. This
resets the sunroof motor memory and now the
sunroof will operate correctly.
Sliding the sunroof
To open the sunroof, push the switch toward
DOWN/OPEN. Push the switch again to com-
pletely open the sunroof.
To close the sunroof, push the switch toward
UP/CLOSE.
Tilting the sunroof
Close the sunroof by pushing the switch toward
UP/CLOSE. Release the switch, then push the
UP/CLOSE switch to tilt the sunroof up.
To tilt the sunroof down, push the switch toward
DOWN/OPEN.
WARNING
cIn an accident you could be thrown from
the vehicle through an open sunroof.
Always use seat belts and child
restraints.
cDo not allow anyone to stand up or
extend any portion of their body out of
the sunroof opening while the vehicle is
in motion or while the sunroof is
closing.
