opened position. When you push the switch once again,

same side or the “TILT” switch.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully will cause wind
throbs, we recommend you to drive with the moon roof partway
30 mm (1.2 in.) from the fully opened position.
To operate the moon roof, the ignition switch must be in the
“ON” position.
The sunshade can be opened or closed manually. However,

If the moon roof receives a strong impact, this function may
work even if nothing is caught.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the
following.
 While the vehicle is moving, always keep the heads,
hands and o ther parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Otherwise, they could
be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or
if the vehicle is involved in an accident.
 Before you close the moon roof, always make sure
there is nobody around the moon roof. You must also
make sure nobody places his or her head, hands and
other parts of the body in the roof opening. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get caught in the
closing roof, it could result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moon roof, first make sure
it is safe to do so.
 Be sure to remove the ignition key or turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position when you leave your
vehicle.

roof switches and get trapped in the roof opening.
Unattended persons (particularly a small child) can
be involved in a serious accident.
 Never sit on top of the vehicle around the roof
opening.
 Never try jamming any part of your body to activate
the jam protection function intentionally.
 The jam protection function may not work if
something gets caught just before the moon roof is
fully closed.
