CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle during an accident. It also helps
prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.

The sun shade can be operated or closed
by hand.
Sliding operation—
To open: Push the switch on the “OPEN”
side.
The roof will open and stop partway 62
mm (2.4 in.) from the fully opened posi-
tion. When you push “OPEN” side again,
the moon roof will open fully. To stop the
roof partway, push the switch on either
the “OPEN” or “CLOSE” side briefly.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully
will cause wind throbs, we recommend
you to drive with the moon roof partway
62 mm (2.4 in.) from the fully opened
position.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.

“OPEN” side.
Jam protection function (closing opera-
tion only):
If something gets caught be-
tween the moon roof and frame during
closing operation, the moon roof stops and
opens halfway.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught.
If the battery is disconnected or run
down, the moon roof may not operate
automatically after you reconnect, replace
or recharge the battery. In any of these
cases, you should normalize the moon
roof.
To normalize the moon roof, push and
hold the moon roof switch on the “CLOSE”

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the heads, hands and other
parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, they could be seriously in-
jured if the vehicle stops suddenly
or if the vehicle is involved in an
accident.
Before you close the moon roof,
always make sure there is nobody
around the moon roof. You must
also make sure nobody places his
or her head, hands and other parts
of the body in the roof opening. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in the closing roof, it could
result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moon roof,
first make sure it is safe to do so.
Be sure to remove the ignition key
when you leave your vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could
use the moon roof switches and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended person (particularly a small
child) can be involved in a serious
accident.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of your
body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the moon roof is fully
closed.
