Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
These vehicle accessories may be used for up to
10 minutes after the engine is turned off.
Audio System
Power Windows
Sunroof
The power windows and sunroof will continue to work
for up to 10 minutes or until any door is opened.
The radio will work when the key is in ON/RUN or
ACC/ACCESSORY. Once the key is turned from
ON/RUN to OFF/LOCK, the radio will continue to work
for 10 minutes or until the driver’s door is opened.
Starting the Engine
Place the transmission in the proper gear.
Automatic Transmission
Move the shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). The
engine will not start in any other position -- this is a
safety feature. To restart when you are already moving,
use NEUTRAL (N) only.
Notice:Do not try to shift to PARK (P) if your
vehicle is moving. If you do, you could damage the
transmission. Shift to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle is stopped.
Manual Transmission
The shift lever should be in neutral position and the
parking brake engaged. Hold the clutch pedal down to
the oor and start the engine. Your vehicle will not
start if the clutch pedal is not all the way down. That is
a safety feature.
2-25

There is a metal rod that hooks into place to prop open
the lid. Push the rod towards the lid to unhook it and
lower the lid.
Sunroof
The vehicle may have a power sunroof.
The switches that operate
the sunroof are located in
the headliner.
To open or close the sunroof, the ignition must be in
RUN, in ACC, or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) must
be active. SeeRetained Accessory Power (RAP) on
page 2-25.
2-52

Express Open:To express open the power sunroof,
fully press the driver’s side switch rearward once.
To stop the sunroof glass in a desired position other
than to the express-open position, press the switch
again, in either direction, to stop the movement. If the
sunshade is in the closed position, it will open with
the sunroof, or it can be opened manually.
Vent Open:To open to the vent position from the
closed position, press and hold the passenger’s side
sunroof switch forward. The rear of the sunroof panel will
tilt upward to the full vent position. The sunshade
must be opened manually.
Express Close:To express close the power sunroof,
fully press the driver’s side switch forward once. To stop
the sunroof glass in a desired position other than
closed, press the switch again in either direction. The
sunshade must be closed manually.Close:To close the power sunroof, operate the controls
according to one of the following:
From the open position, press and hold the driver’s
side sunroof switch forward. The sunshade must be
closed manually.
From the vent position, press and hold the
passenger’s side sunroof switch rearward.
Anti-Pinch:If an object is in the path of the sunroof
while it is closing, the anti-pinch feature will detect the
object and stop the sunroof from closing at the point
of the obstruction. The sunroof will then return to
the full-open or vent position. To close the sunroof once
it has re-opened, refer to the two options previously
described under the “Close” feature instructions.

FM Stereo
FM stereo gives the best sound, but FM signals only
reach about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall buildings
or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing the
sound to fade in and out.
XM™ Satellite Radio Service
XM™ Satellite Radio Service gives digital radio
reception from coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada. Just as with FM,
tall buildings or hills can interfere with satellite radio
signals, causing the sound to fade in and out. In
addition, traveling or standing under heavy foliage,
bridges, garages, or through tunnels could cause loss of
the XM signal for a period of time. The radio may
display NO XM SIGNAL to indicate interference.
Fixed Mast Antenna
This type of antenna is called a xed mast antenna. It is
mounted at the center of the roof, just behind the
windshield.
The mast antenna can withstand most car washes
without being damaged. If the mast should ever become
slightly bent, straighten it out by hand. If the mast is
badly bent, replace it.Check occasionally to make sure the mast is still
tightened to the roof. If tightening is required, tighten
by hand.
If you are putting a protective cover over the vehicle,
remove the mast by hand.
XM™ Satellite Radio Antenna
System
The XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is located at the rear
of the vehicle. Keep this antenna clear of snow and
ice build up for clear radio reception.
If your vehicle has a sunroof, the performance of the
XM™ system may be affected if the sunroof is open.
If your vehicle has a roof rack, loading items onto
the roof of your vehicle can interfere with the
performance of the XM™ system. Make sure the XM™
Satellite Radio antenna is not obstructed.
