POWER SUNROOF
• The power sunroof switch is located on the overhead console.
Opening SunroofExpress
• Press the switch rearward and release. The sunroof will fully open and
stop automatically.
Closing SunroofExpress
• Press the switch forward and release. The sunroof will close
automatically from any position.
Manual Open/Close
• Press and hold the switch rearward to open or forward to close the
sunroof. Any release of the switch will stop the movement, and the
sunroof will remain in a partially open or closed position until the switch
is pressed again.
Venting Sunroof
• Press and release the "VENT" button, and the sunroof will open to the
vent position. This is called “Express Vent” and will occur regardless of
sunroof position. During Express Vent operation, any movement of the
switch will stop the sunroof.
Pinch Protection Feature
• This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof
during Express Close operation. If an obstruction in the path of the
sunroof is detected, the sunroof will automatically 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!
• Never leave children in a vehicle with the key in the ignition switch.
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 seatbelt 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 occurs with 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.
