CLOSING SUNROOF — EXPRESS
Press the switch forward and release it within one-half
second and the sunroof will close automatically from
any position. The sunroof will close fully and stop
automatically. This is called “Express Close”. During
Express Close operation, any movement of the switch
will stop the sunroof.

CLOSING SUNROOF — MANUAL MODE
To close the sunroof, press and hold the switch in the
forward position. Any release of the switch will stop
the movement and the sunroof will remain in a partially
closed condition until the switch is pushed and held
forward again.

PINCH PROTECT FEATURE
This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening
of the sunroof during Express Close operation. If an
obstruction is detected, the sunroof will automatically
retract. Remove the obstruction if this occurs. Next,
press the switch forward and release to Express Close.

NOTE:

If three consecutive sunroof close attempts

result in Pinch Protect reversals, the fourth close at-
tempt will be a Manual Close movement with Pinch
Protect disabled.

PINCH PROTECT OVERRIDE
If a known obstruction (ice, debris, etc.) prevents
closing the sunroof, press the switch forward and hold
for two seconds after the reversal occurs. This allows
the sunroof to move toward the closed position.

NOTE:

Pinch protection is disabled while the switch

is pressed.

VENTING SUNROOF — EXPRESS
Press and release the “Vent” button, and the sunroof
will open to the vent position. This is called “Express
Vent”, and will occur regardless of sunroof position.
During Express Vent operation, any movement of the
switch will stop the sunroof.

SUNSHADE OPERATION
The sunshade can be opened manually. However, the
sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens.

NOTE:

The sunshade cannot be closed if the sunroof

is open.

WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) is in
certain open or partially open positions. This is a
normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the buffet-
ing occurs with the rear windows open, open the front
and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If
the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the
sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or open any
window.
