■The moon roof can be operated when
The engine switch is in the ON position.
■ Door lock linked moon roof operation
The moon roof can be opened and closed using the key. ( P. 37)
■ Operating the moon roof after turning the engine switch off
The moon roof can be operated for approximately 43 seconds even after the
engine switch is turned to the ACC or turned off. It cannot, however, be oper-
ated once either front door is opened.
■ Jam protection function
If an object is detected between the moon roof and the frame while closing
or tilting down, travel is stopped and the moon roof opens slightly.
■ If the moon roof cannot be closed
If the moon roof cannot be closed automatically, such as when the jam pro-
tection function activates accidentally due to a malfunction, pressing and
holding the switch closes the moon roof.
■ To reduce wind noise
Drive with the moon roof opened to slightly before the fully open position as
driving with the moon roof opened fully will cause wind noise.
■ Sunshade
The sunshade can be opened and closed manually. However, the sunshade
will open automatically when the moon roof is opened.
■ Moon roof open reminder function
An alarm will sound when the driver’s door is opened with the moon roof not
fully closed and the engine switch off.
■ Customization that can be co nfigured at Toyota dealer
Settings (e.g. moon roof) can be changed.
