2022 INFINITI QX50 roof

POWER MOONROOF
The front moonroof is a power moonroof,
the rear moonroof is fixed glass. The power
moonroof will only operate when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The
moonroof is operational for a period of time,
even if the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position. If the driver's door or the front pas-
senger's door is opened during this period of
time, the power to the moonroof is canceled.
Sliding the moonroof
To slide the moonroof:
• To fully open the moonroof, push theswitch
O1toward the open position until it
reaches the second detent. If the switch
O1
is pushed to the first detent, only the sun-
shade will open.
• To fully close the moonroof, push the switch
O2toward the close position until it
reaches the second detent. If the switch
O2
is pushed to the first detent, the moonroof
will close but the sunshade will remain
open.
• To stop the moonroof during operation, push the
O1,O2orO3switch to the desired
position.
Tilting the moonroof
To tilt up, push the moonroof switchO3.To
tilt down the moonroof, push the switch
O3,
or the switch
O2to the first detent. When the
switch
O2is pushed to the second detent, the
moonroof will tilt down and the sunshade will
close.
Resetting the moonroof switch
If the moonroof does not operate properly,
perform the following procedure to initialize
the moonroof operation system.
1. If the moonroof and sunshade are open, close them fully by repeatedly pushing the
moonroof switch to the close
O2position.
2. Push and hold the moonroof switch to the close position
O2at the first detent.
3. After holding the switch for 10 seconds, the moonroof and sunshade move slightly
to the closed position and then move back
a little.
4. The moonroof and sunshade will fully open and then fully close automatically.
5. Release the switch. Check if the moonroof switch operates normally.
If the moonroof does not operate properly
after performing the procedure above, have
your vehicle checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

MOONROOF (if so equipped)
Instruments and controls2-69

Auto-reverse function (when
closing or tilting down the
moonroof)
The auto-reverse function can be activated
when the moonroof and sunshade are closed
or tilted down by automatic operation when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion or for a period of time after the ignition
switch is placed in the OFF position.
Depending on the environment or driving
conditions, the auto-reverse function may
be activated if an impact or load similar to
something being caught in the moonroof
occurs.
WARNING
There are some small distances immedi-
ately before the closed position which can-
not be detected. Make sure that all passen-
gers have their hands, etc., inside the
vehicle before closing the moonroof.
When closing
If the control unit detects something caught
in the moonroof and sunshade as it moves to
the front, the moonroof and sunshade will
immediately open backward.
When tilting down
If the control unit detects something caught
in the moonroof as it tilts down, the moon-
roof will immediately tilt up.
WARNING
• In an accident you could be thrown from
the vehicle through an open moonroof.
Always use seat belts and child
restraints.
• Do not allow anyone to stand up or ex-
tend any portion of their body out of the
moonroof opening while the vehicle is in
motion or while the moonroof is closing.
CAUTION
• Remove water drops, snow, ice or sand
from the moonroof before opening.
• Do not place heavy objects on the moon-
roof or surrounding area.
Panoramic sunshade
The panoramic sunshade operates when the
ignition switch is in the ON position. When
opening or closing the sunshade the switch
need not be held. To open the sunshade:
• To fully open the sunshade, slide the switch
O1toward the OPEN position to the first
detent.
• To fully open the sunshade and the moon- roof together, slide the switch
O1toward
the OPEN position to the second detent.
To close the sunshade:
• To fully close the sunshade, slide the switch
O2toward the CLOSE position to the sec-
ond detent. If the moonroof is open, both
the moonroof and the sunshade will close
automatically.
• If the switch is slid
O2toward the CLOSE
position to the first detent while the moon-
roof is open, only the moonroof will close.
The sunshade will remain open.
To stop the sunshade during operation, push
the switch
O1,O2,orO3at the desired
position.

•Never use chloride solutions for cleaning
aluminum decoratives (if so equipped),
damage may occur.
LEATHER CLEANING KIT (if so
equipped)
Spray onto leather cleaning cloth, then gently
wipe the surface of the leather. Use a dry
towel to absorb any excess moisture.
Clean light-colored leather more frequently
because soiling on such surfaces is much
more visible.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions supplied with the leather cleaning kit.
You can obtain the leather cleaning kit from
an INFINITI retailer or other authorized repair
shop.
CAUTION
Do not leave the leather cleaning kit inside
the vehicle. The leather cleaning kit left in a
closed vehicle can become very hot.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could
affect the vehicle interior. If you use an air
freshener, take the following precautions:
• Hanging-type air fresheners can cause per- manent discoloration when they contact
vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air fresh-
ener in a location that allows it to hang free
and not contact an interior surface.
• Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the vents. These products can cause imme-
diate damage and discoloration when
spilled on interior surfaces.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer's
instructions before using the air fresheners.
POWER MOONROOF (if so
equipped)
The sunshade is made from a tricot material.
CAUTION
To help prevent damaging the moonroof
while cleaning:
• Do not rub the material with a cloth. Do-
ing so can damage the surface of the ma-
terial or cause a stain to spread.
• Never use benzine, thinner or any similar
chemical to clean the sunshade. This may
discolor the moonroof and damage the
surface.
• Clean water based stains by patting the
surface with a clean soft cloth dampened
in warm water. Press a clean dry cloth
onto the surface to remove as much
dampness as possible and then let air dry.
• Clean oil based stains by patting the sur-
face with a clean soft cloth dampened in
warm water. Press a clean dry cloth onto
the surface to remove as much dampness
as possible and then let air dry.
