The sunroof can only be opened,
closed, or tilted when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• In cold and wet climates, the sun-
roof may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• After a vehicle is washed or in a rainstorm be sure to wipe off any
water that is on the sunroof before
operating it.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The sunroof cannot tilt when it is in
the slide position but can be slid
while in a tilt position.

CAUTION
Do not continue to pull or push
the sunroof control lever afterthe sunroof is fully opened,closed, or tilted. Damage to themotor or system componentscould occur.
WARNING
Never adjust the sunroof or roller blind while driving. This
could result in loss of control
and an accident that may
cause death, serious injury, or
property damage.
If you would like to carry items on the roof rack using a cross
bar, do not operate the sunroof.
When carrying cargo on the roof rack, do not load heavy
items above the sunroof or
glass roof.
All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at
all times. Seat belts and child

Features of your vehicle
(Continued)
Always drive slowly and turncorners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof rack.
Severe wind updrafts, caused
by passing vehicles or natural
causes, can cause sudden
upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof rack. This
is especially true when carry-
ing large, flat items such as
wood panels or mattresses.
This could cause the items to
fall off the roof rack and cause
damage to your vehicle or
others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driv-
ing to make sure the items on
the roof rack are securely fas-
tened.

light duty trucks and multipurpose
vehicles.
Ply: A layer of rubber-coated parallel
cords. Pneumatic tire:
A mechanical
device made of rubber, chemicals,

heavy duty battery, and special trim.
Recommended Inflation Pressure:
Vehicle manufacturer's recommend-
ed tire inflation pressure and shown
on the tire placard.
Radial Ply Tire: A pneumatic tire in
which the ply cords that extend to the
beads are laid at 90 degrees to the
centerline of the tread.
Rim: A metal support for a tire and
upon which the tire beads are seated. Sidewall:
The portion of a tire
between the tread and the bead.
Speed Rating: An alphanumeric
code assigned to a tire indicating the
maximum speed at which a tire can
operate.
Traction: The friction between the
tire and the road surface. The
amount of grip provided.
Tread: The portion of a tire that
comes into contact with the road.
Treadwear Indicators: Narrow
bands, sometimes called "wear bars,"
that show across the tread of a tire
when only 2/32 inch of tread remains.
UTQGS: Uniform Tire Quality
Grading Standards, a tire information
system that provides consumers with
ratings for a tire's traction, tempera-
ture and treadwear. Ratings are
determined by tire manufacturers
using government testing proce-
dures. The ratings are molded into
the sidewall of the tire.
Vehicle Capacity Weight: The num-
ber of designated seating positions
multiplied by 150 lbs. (68 kg) plus the
