MEMORY RESET PROCEDURE
1. Please observe the following instructi ons at confirming the sunroof operation.
NOTE:
Do not disconnect the electronic power while the sunroof is operating or within 5 seconds after the sunroof
stops. (to wipe-out the memory of lid position and operating friction.)
2. Initialization of system should be conducted after the following conditions.
• When the sunroof motor is changed.
• When the sunroof does not operate normally. (Incomplete initialization conditions)

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
If the sunroof does not close or open automatically, us e the following procedure to return sunroof operation to
normal.
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Push and hold the sunroof tilt switch in the forw ard (DOWN) position until the sunroof is fully closed.

SUNROOF SYSTEM
INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL CHART
SUNROOF OPERATION
• The sunroof motor assembly operates with a power supply that is output from the BCM while the ignition
switch is ON or retained power is operating.
• The tilt up/down & slide open/close signals from the sunr oof switch enable the sunroof motor to move arbi-
trarily.
AUTO OPERATION
The sunroof AUTO feature makes it possible to sli de open and slide close or tilt up and tilt down the sunroof
without holding the sunroof switch in the slide open/tilt down or slide close/tilt up position.
RETAINED POWER OPERATION
Retained power operation is an additional power supply function that enables the sunroof system to operate
up to 45 seconds after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
Retained power function cancel conditions
• When a front door is opened (door switch ON)
• When ignition switch is turned ON again.
• When 45 seconds elapse on the timer.
