To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
Always make sure the heads, hands
and other parts of the bodies of all
occupants are kept completely in-
side the vehicle before you close
the power windows. If someone’s
neck, head or hands gets caught in
a closing window, it could result in
a serious injury. When anyone
closes the power windows, make
sure that he/she operates the win-
dows safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock switch to
prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended children can be involved in
serious accidents.
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY
Insert the key into the keyhole and turn
it.
To lock: Turn the key clockwise.
To unlock: Turn the key counterclockwise.
To open the back door, pull the lock re-
lease lever.
When all the side doors and back door
are unlocked simultaneously with a key,
the interior light comes on for about 15
seconds and then fades out, even if the
door is not opened. (For further informa-
tion, see “Interior lights” on page 92 and
“Ignition switch light” on page 93 in Sec-
tion 1 4.)

Operating the power door lock switch or
wireless remote control transmitter simul-
taneously locks or unlocks the back door
(see “Side doors” on page 16 in this sec-
tion).
When closing the back door, make sure
it is fully closed.
See “Luggage stowage precautions” on
page 191 in Section 2 for precautions to
observe in loading luggage.
When closing the back door, use the
inside strap for easier reach to the
back door.
To close the back door, lower it and press
down on it. After closing the back door,
try pulling it up to make sure it is secure-
ly closed.
See “Luggage stowage precautions” on
page 191 in Section 2 for precautions in
loading luggage.
CAUTION
Keep the back door closed while driv-
ing. This not only keeps the luggage
from being thrown out but also pre-
vents exhaust gases from entering
the vehicle.

To deter the vehicle theft, the system
is designed to give an alarm if any of
the side doors, back door or hood is
forcibly unlocked or the battery termi-
nal is disconnected and then recon-
nected when the system is set.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes the headlights, tail lights, turn

the side doors and back door is unlocked
forcibly, all the side doors and back door
will be automatically locked.SETTING THE SYSTEM

then pause slightly before removing
it. After removing the cap, hang it
on the cap hanger.

Sliding operation
Tilting operation
To operate the moon roof, use the
switch beside the personal light.
The moon roof works when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position. However,
if both front doors are closed, it works for
43 seconds even after the ignition switch
is turned off. It stops working when either
front door is opened.
Sun shade operation—
The sun shade can be opened or closed
by hand.
Sliding operation—
To open: Push the switch on the “SLIDE
OPEN” side.
The roof will open and stop at the three
quarters closed position. When you push
the switch again, the moon roof will open
fully. To stop the roof partway, push the
switch on either the “SLIDE OPEN” or
“TILT UP” side while the roof is moving.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully
will cause wind throbs, we recommend
you to drive with the moon roof at the
three quarters closed from the fully
opened position.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.
To close: Push the switch on the “TILT
UP” side. The roof will fully close. To stop the roof
partway, push the switch on either the
“SLIDE OPEN” or “TILT UP” side.
Tilting operation—
To tilt up: Push the switch on the “TILT
UP” side.
To lower: Push the switch on the “SLIDE
OPEN” side.
You may stop the moon roof at any de-
sired position. The roof will move while
the switch is being pushed and stop when
released except to slide open.
Jam protection function (closing opera-
tion only):
During closing operation, the
moon roof stops and opens half way if
something gets caught between the moon
roof and frame.
If an impact is given to the moon roof,
this function may work without anything
caught.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the heads, hands and other
parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, they could be seriously in-
jured if the vehicle stops suddenly
or if the vehicle is involved in an
accident.
Always make sure nobody places
his/her head, hands and other parts
of the body in the roof opening be-
fore you close the roof. If some-
one’s neck, head or hands gets
caught in the closing roof, it could
result in a serious injury. When
anyone close the roof, first make
sure it is safe to do so.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the moon roof switches and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended children can be involved in
serious accidents.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of your
body to make the jam protection
function work intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the moon roof is fully
closed.
