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
extend 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
moonroof or surrounding area.
Resetting the moonroof switch
The moonroof switch may not operate properly
and may need to be reset if any of the following
conditions have occurred:
●the battery terminal has been disconnected,
●the moonroof has been manually moved,
●the moonroof motor has been removed and
reinstalled after the moonroof has been re-
positioned or adjusted,●the moonroof glass panel has been adjusted
or changed, or
●the electrical supply interrupted and/or
some malfunction has been detected.
Use the following reset procedure to return
moonroof operation to normal.
1. Press the UP/CLOSE side of the moonroof
switch, until it stops and then release the
switch.
2. Push and hold the UP/CLOSE side of the
moonroof switch. The moonroof panel will
begin to move in about 10 seconds.

moonroof switch while the panel moves in a
jogging motion to the full tilt position. When
the panel reaches the full tilt position it will
back up a little and stop.
4. Release the UP/CLOSE side of the moon-
roof switch.
5. Within 5 seconds of completing step 4,
press and continuously hold the UP/CLOSE
side of the moonroof switch. After a delay of
5 seconds, the panel will move from the tilt
position to the open position and back to the
close position.6. Release the UP/CLOSE side of the moon-
roof switch. Do not disconnect the power for
at least 2 seconds. The moonroof is now
restarted.
NOTE:
If the UP/CLOSE side of the moonroof
switch is released anytime during the re-
starting process, all learned profile data
will be discarded and the procedure will
have to be started over.
If the moonroof still does not operate properly,
have the moonroof system checked, and if nec-
essary repaired, by a NISSAN dealer.
Auto-reverse function (when closing or
tilting down the moonroof)
The auto-reverse function can be activated when
the moonroof is closed or tilted down by auto-
matic operation when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position or for about 45 sec-
onds 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.
