If your vehicle has the OnStar and navigation system, it
will have a crossrail stop tab placed in the siderail in
the location labeled OnSTAR STOP. This tab prevents
you from moving the crossrails and cargo too close
to the OnStar antenna, which could cause the system to
function improperly or not at all.
Vehicles with the off-road lamps will have additional
stop tabs placed in the siderails to prevent you
from moving the lamps too far rearward, causing them
to shine into the optional sunroof opening.
Crossrail Channels
Notice:If you drive your vehicle through an
automatic car wash that does not have enough
clearance for any roof-mounted accessories (such
as off-road lamps or a roof basket) on your vehicle,
you can damage your vehicle. To avoid damaging
your vehicle in a car wash, remove any
roof-mounted accessories if you can, and do not
use an automatic car wash while roof-mounted
accessories are on your vehicle. SeeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 5-109for more information.
The crossrails have built in channels to allow you to
attach other items designed for this system, such
as basket luggage carriers, bike racks, ski racks, etc.

Express-Open/Close Sunroof
The sunroof has a feature which allows the sunroof
panel to be opened or closed without continuously
pressing the switch. The express-open can be stopped
at any time by pushing the front of the switch a
second time.
The sunroof has four positions:
Comfort open stop:To open the sunroof and
sunshade, press the rear of the switch quickly and
release. The glass panel will open to an interim
position that reduces wind noise. For information on
using the sunshade, see “Sunshade Operation” later.
Full open stop:To open the sunroof further, press
the rear of the switch quickly once more.
Express close:To close the sunroof, press the front
of the switch quickly and release.
Vent:The vent position allows the rear of the sunroof
to be opened and tilted upward. With the sunroof in
the fully closed position, press and hold the front of
the switch until the sunroof reaches the desired vent
position or until it stops moving. To close the sunroof
from the vent position, press and hold the rear of the
switch until the sunroof is fully closed.
Do not leave the sunroof open for long periods of time
as debris may collect in the tracks.
Anti-Pinch Protection Feature
If something gets caught between the glass panel and
roof frame while the sunroof is closing, the glass
panel will stop and open half way, and the de ector will
raise fully.
If something gets caught between the glass panel and
the roof frame during the tilt down operation, the
glass panel will stop and open fully.
If the sunroof panel receives a strong impact, the
anti-pinch protection feature may work even if nothing
gets caught between the glass panel and roof frame.
Do not to leave the sunroof open for long periods of time
as debris may collect in the tracks.
Sunshade Operation
The sunshade will open automatically when opening
the sunroof.
However, it can manually be pulled shut after the
sunroof is closed. To adjust the sunshade, push it
backward or pull it forward to the desired position. The
sunshade cannot be adjusted further than the current
closed position of the sunroof.
Notice:If you force the sunshade forward of the
sliding glass panel, damage will occur and the
sunroof may not open or close properly. Always
close the glass panel before closing the sunshade.
