Wind buffeting can be described as the per- ception of pressure on
the ears or a booming
or rumbling sound. Your vehicle may exhibitwind buffeting when driving with one or both
rear door windows down or partially opened. This is a normal occurrence that can be mini- mized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear door windows open, open the front door win-dows as well as the rear door windows to minimize the condition.
N00511000656
The sunroof can be opened and closed with the ignition switch in the “ON” position.
NOTE
The safety mechanism can be activated if the driving conditions or other circumstances cause the door window to be subjected to a physical shock similar to that caused by trapped hand or head. If the safety mechanism is activated 3 or more times consecutively, the safety mecha-nism is deactivated and normal closing of the door window will be aborted. Use the following method to return to normaloperation. 1. If the door window is open, repeatedly pull up the power window switch to fully close the door window. 2. With fully closing the window, releasethe switch and then pull up the switch again for about 1 second.

Be careful that hands are not trapped when closing the sunshade.NOTE
Be sure to tilt down the sunroof before clos- ing the sunshade. When leaving the vehicle unattended, be sure to close the sunroof and without the ignition key. Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro- zen closed (after snowfall or during extreme cold). Do not sit on or place heavy luggage on the sunroof or roof opening edge. Do not apply any force that may cause dam- age to the sunroof. Release the switch when the sunroof has reached a completely open or completelyclosed position. If the sunroof does not operate when the sun- roof switch is operated, release the switch and check whether something is trapped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, have thesunroof checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Be careful when tilting
up the sunroof if a ski
carrier or a roof carrier is installed. Depend-ing on the model of ski car
rier or roof carrier,
the sunroof may contact the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.CAUTION
Be sure to close the sunroof completely when washing the vehicle or when leaving the vehicle. Do not put any wax on the weatherstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof opening. If it is waxed, the weatherstrip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal with the sunroof. After washing the vehicle or after rain be sure to wipe off any water that is on the sun-roof before operating it. Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the engine turned off will run down the battery. Operate the sunroof only while the engine is running.
