WARNING!
²Never leave children in a vehicle, with the keys in
the ignition switch. Occupants, particularly unat-
tended children, can become entrapped by the
power sunroof while operating the power sunroof
switch. Such entrapment may result in serious
injury or death.
²In an accident, there is a greater risk of being
thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You
could also be seriously injured or killed. Always
fasten your seat belt properly and make sure all
passengers are properly secured too.
²Do not allow small children to operate the sun-
roof. Never allow fingers or other body parts, or
any object to project through the sunroof opening.
Injury may result.

to full open. Any release of the switch will stop the
movement and the sunroof will remain in a partial open
condition until the switch is pushed and held rearward
again.
Opening Sunroof Ð Express mode
By pressing the switch rearward and releasing, the sun-
roof will fully open from any position and stop at the end
of travel automatically. This is called Express Open.

held forward again. To ensure sunroof is fully closed,
press and hold switch until sunroof has completely
stopped moving.
Closing Sunroof Ð Express Mode
By pressing the switch forward and releasing, the sunroof
will fully close from any position and stop at the end of
travel automatically. This is called Express Close. During
Express Close, any activation of the sunroof switch will
stop the sunroof.
Pinch Protect Feature
This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of
the sunroof during Express Close operation. If an ob-
struction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the
sunroof will automatically retract. Next, press the switch
forward and release to Express Close.
Pinch Protect Override
If a known obstruction (ice, debris, etc.) prevents closing,
press the switch forward and hold for two seconds after
the reversal occurs. This allows the sunroof to move
towards the close position.
NOTE:Pinch protection is disabled while the switch is
pressed.
Venting Sunroof Ð Express
Press and release the ªVº button, and the sunroof will
open to the vent position. This is called Express Vent, and

Sunshade Operation
The sunshade can be opened manually. However, the
sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens.
NOTE:The sunshade cannot be closed if the sunroof is
open.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur-
rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.
Sunroof Maintenance
Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean
the glass panel.
Ignition Off Operation
The sunroof will also operate up to 45 seconds after the
ignition has been turned off. The sunroof operation will
be canceled if either of the front doors are opened during
the accessory delay time or set accessory delay time.

COOLED BEVERAGE STORAGE BIN/GLOVE
COMPARTMENT Ð IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:The use of the Cooled Beverage Storage Bin is
for non-perishable beverages only.
The upper storage bin door swings up to present the
contents of the long, shallow bin that can store items out
of sight. Beneath this bin is the glove compartment. The
large glove compartment door swings down on damp-
ened hinges and features two levels of storage: the upperbin functions as a Cooled Beverage Storage Bin for
vehicles equipped with air conditioning for storing up to
four 20 ounce (0.6 Liter) bottles or cans. When desired,
cool air enters the compartment to keep the contents cool,
depending on ambient temperature and A/C settings.
To operate the beverage cooler, pull the slide control
about 1/2 inch (12 mm) toward the passenger compart-
ment. This will allow cool air to enter the beverage cooler.
To shut off the beverage cooler when not in use, push the
slide control back 1/2 inch (12 mm). This will prevent
cool air from entering the passenger compartment when
in heat mode.
