Trunk Lid Tie Down
CAUTION:
Driving with the trunk lid open can allow
dangerous CO (carbon monoxide) gas to come
into your vehicle. You can't see or smell CO.
It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
If you ever need to drive with your trunk lid
open, then:

Make sure all windows, the rear seat
pass
-through and sunroof are closed.

Turn the fan on your heating and cooling
system to its highest speed, with the
setting on AUTO and temperature between
65F (18C) and 85F (29C). This forces
fresh outside air into your vehicle.

Open all air ducts on the instrument panel.
Don't use the trunk lid tie down if you are towing
a trailer because of the danger of CO.
This feature is used to secure the trunk lid if it will not
close completely, such as when carrying large packages
in the trunk.
1. Attach the clip end of the tie down to the ªDº ring
on the trunk lid (see view A).
2. Attach the hook end of the tie down to the striker
located at the center of the trunk sill (see view B).
3. Tighten the tie down by pulling the free end of the
cord until secure.
4. To remove the tie down, press the clip end release
and loosen the cord.

NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in OFF and you can't
turn it, be sure you are using the correct key;
if so, is it all the way in? If it is, then turn the
steering wheel left and right while you turn the
key hard. But turn the key only with your hand.
Using a tool to force it could break the key or the
ignition switch. If none of this works, then your
vehicle needs service.
ACCESSORY (B): This position allows you to use
things like the radio and the windshield wipers when the
engine is off. This position will allow you to turn off the
engine, but still turn the steering wheel. If your vehicle
has a column shifter, you will still be able to move the
shift lever. Use ACCESSORY if you must have your
vehicle in motion while the engine is off (for example,
if your vehicle is being pushed or towed).ON (C): This position is for driving. If your vehicle has
a floor (console) shifter and you turn off the engine, the
transaxle will lock. If you need to shift the transaxle out
of PARK (P), the ignition key has to be in ON.
START (D): This position starts the engine.
Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
The following accessories on your vehicle may be used
for up to 10 minutes after the ignition key is turned from
ON to OFF:

Radio

Power Windows

Sunroof
Power to these accessories will stop after 10 minutes or
if any door is opened. If you want power for another
10 minutes, turn the ignition key to ACCESSORY,
then back to OFF. Always leave your key in OFF when
using RAP.

2-71
Sunroof (Option)
The two control switches to operate the sunroof are
located on the overhead console and include VENT,

The control switches work only when the ignition is
on or the Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active.

hold the ROOF switch rearward to the first position.
The sunshade can also be opened by hand. To close the
glass panel, press and hold the ROOF switch forward.
As the glass panel closes, it will open slightly toward the
vent to provide a better seal. The sunshade can only be
closed by hand.
To express
-open the glass panel to a partially open
position, press and release the ROOF switch rearward
to the second position. The glass panel may be fully
opened by pressing the ROOF switch again.
To stop the glass panel when express opening, press
either the ROOF or VENT switch in any direction.
If you press and hold the ROOF switch in the express
open position for more than one second, the express
open operation will be over
-ridden and the sunroof will
stop when the switch is released.
To vent the glass panel, press and hold the VENT switch
in the open position. The sunshade must be opened by
