Moonroof (if equipped)
WARNING
Never let anyone ’shands,arms,
head or any objects protrude from
the moonroof. A person could be
seriously injured if the vehicle stops
suddenly or turns sharply or if the
vehicle is involved in an accident.
To avoid serious personal injury
caused by entrapment, always con-
form to the following instructions
without exception. . Before closing the moonroof,
make sure that no one ’s hands,
arms, head or other objects will
be accidentally caught in themoonroof.
. Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways remove the key from the
ignition switch for safety and
never allow an unattended child
to remain in the vehicle. Failure
to follow this procedure could
result in injury to a child operat-
ing the moonroof. .
Never try to check the anti-en-
trapment function by deliberately
placing part of your body in themoonroof.
CAUTION
. Do not sit on the edge of the open
moonroof.
. Do not operate the moonroof if
falling snow or extremely cold
conditions have caused it to
freeze shut.
. The anti-entrapment function
does not operate when the moon-
roof is being tilted down. Be sure
to confirm that it is safe to do so
before tilting the moonroof down.
The moonroof has both tilting and slidingfunctions.
The moonroof operates only when the
ignition switch is in the “ON ”position. &
Moonroof switches
! Tilting moonroof
1) Raise
2) Lower
The tilting function will only operate when
the moonroof is fully closed.
Push the rear side of the “UP/DOWN ”
switch to raise the moonroof.
Push the front side of the “UP/DOWN ”
switch to lower the moonroof.
Release the switch after the moonroof has
been raised or has been lowered com-
pletely. Pushing the switch continuously
may cause damage to the moonroof. Keys and doors

NOTE
One-touch operation does not take
place when the moonroof is lowered.
Push the switch continuously to raise
and lower the moonroof. !Sliding moonroof
1) Open
2) Close
Push the “OPEN/CLOSE ”switch rearward
to open the moonroof. The sun shade will
also be opened together with the moon-roof.
Push the “OPEN/CLOSE ”switch forward
to close the moonroof.
To stop the moonroof at a selected mid-
way position while opening or closing it,
momentarily push the switch to the“ OPEN ”side or “CLOSE ”side. After washing the vehicle or after it rains,
wipe away water on the roof prior to
opening the moonroof to prevent drops
of water from falling into the passengercompartment. !
Anti-entrapment function
When the moonroof senses a substantial
enough object trapped between its glass
and the vehicle ’s roof during closure, it
automatically moves back to the fully open
position and stops there. The anti-entrap-
ment function may also be activated by a
strong shock on the moonroof even when
there is nothing trapped.
CAUTION
Never attempt to test this function
using fingers, hands or other parts
of your body.
NOTE . For the sake of safety, it is recom-
mended that you avoid driving with the
moonroof fully opened.. If the moonroof cannot be closed
through the switch operation because
of system failure, it can be closed
manually using a hex-head wrench.
For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof
– if moonroof cannot be closed ”F 9-19. &
Sun shadeThe sun shade can be slid forward or
backward by hand while the moonroof isclosed.
If the moonroof is opened, the sun shade
also moves back.
Ignition switch
WARNING
. Never turn the ignition switch to
“ LOCK ”while the vehicle is
being driven or towed because
that will lock the steering wheel,
preventing steering control. And
when the engine is turned off, it
takes a much greater effort than
usual to steer.
. Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways remove the key from the
ignition switch for safety and
never allow an unattended child
to remain in the vehicle. Failure
to follow this procedure could
result in injury to a child or
others. Children could operate
the power windows, the moon-
roof or other controls or even
make the vehicle move.
CAUTION
Do not attach a large key holder or
key case to either key. If it banged
against your knees or hands while
you are driving, it could turn the
ignition switch from the “ON ”posi- tion to the
“Acc ”or “LOCK ”posi-
tion, thereby stopping the engine.
Also, if the key is attached to a
keyholder or to a large bunch of
other keys, centrifugal force may act
on it as the vehicle moves, resulting
in unwanted turning of the ignitionswitch.
The ignition switch has four positions:
LOCK, Acc, ON and START. NOTE . Keep the ignition switch in the
“ LOCK ”position when the engine is
not running. . Using electrical accessories for a
long time with the ignition switch in the“ ON ”or “Acc ”position can cause the battery to go dead..
If the ignition switch will not move
from the “LOCK ”position to the “Acc ”
position, turn the steering wheel
slightly to the left and right as you turn
the ignition switch. & LOCK
The key can only be inserted or removed
in this position. The ignition switch will lock
the steering wheel when you remove the
key.
If turning the key is difficult, turn the
steering wheel slightly to the right and left
as you turn the key. ! AT models

FM reception
Although FM is normally static free,
reception can be affected by the surround-
ing area, atmospheric conditions, station
strength and transmitter distance. Build-
ings or other obstructions may cause
momentary static, flutter or station inter-
ference. If reception continues to be
unsatisfactory, switch to a stronger station. Audio
