Any release of the switch will stop the movement and the shade will remain in a partially closed
condition until the switch is pushed and held forward again.
Pinch Protection Feature
• This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof during Express Closeoperation. If an obstruction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the sunroof will automati-
cally retract. Remove the obstruction if this occurs. Next, press the switch forward and release
to Express Close.
NOTE:
If three consecutive sunroof close attempts result in Pinch Protect reversals, the fourth close
attempt will be a Manual Close movement with Pinch Protect disabled.
WARNING!
• Do not let children play with the sunroof. Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, and do
not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or
ON/RUN position. Occupants, particularly unattended children, can become entrapped
by the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may
result in serious injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make
sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting occurswith the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any window. This will minimize buffeting.
