Keys and doors
Push the “Open/Close” switch rearward to open the
moonroof. The sun shade will be also opened together
with the moonroof.
Push the “Open/Close” switch forward to close the
moonroof. The moonroof will stop halfway if you con-
tinue to press on the switch. Release the switch once
and push it again to close the moonroof completely.
After washing the vehicle or after it rains, wipe away
water on the roof prior to opening the moonroof to pre-
vent water drops from falling into the passenger com-
partment.
NOTE
If the moonroof cannot be closed through switch
operation because of system failure, it can be
closed manually using a hex-head wrench. For the
procedure, refer to “Moonroof – if the moonroof
cannot be closed” in Chapter 9 “In case of emer-
gency”.
" Never let anyone’s hands, arms, head or any
objects protrude from the moonroof. A person
could be seriously injured if the vehicle stops
suddenly or turns sharply or if the vehicle is in-
volved in an accident.
To avoid serious personal injury caused by en-
trapment, you must do the followings:
"
Before closing the moonroof, make sure that
no one’s hands, arms, head or other objects
will be accidentally caught in the moonroof.
"
Before leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key from the ignition switch for safety and
never allow an unattended child to remain in
the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure
could result in injury to a child operating the
moonroof.
" Do not sit on the edge of the open moonroof.
" Do not operate the moonroof if falling snow
or extremely cold conditions have caused it to
freeze shut.
