■The rear sunshade can be used when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
■Reverse operation feature
This function will become operational when the rear sunshade is in the raised posi-
tion and the vehicle has been driven at 9 mph (15 km/h) or more or with the shift
lever in P.
To ensure adequate rear visibility, the sunshade automatically lowers when the shift
lever is shifted to “R” and the function is in an operational condition.
However, the rear sunshade is raised again if any of the following occurs:
●Shift the shift lever into “P”.
●The shift lever is shifted out of “R”, and the vehicle reaches a speed of 9 mph
(15 km/h).
●The switch is pressed again.*
*
: Occasionally, the reverse function may not be carried out after the switch has
been pressed. Repeat the above operation to operate the function.
If the engine is turned off when the rear sunshade has been lowered due to the
reverse operation feature, it will not be raised even when the engine is turned on
again and the vehicle reaches a speed of 9 mph (15 km/h). To raise the sunshade
again, press the switch.
■After the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to OFF
The rear sunshade can be raised and lowered for approximately 1 minute.
