Panoramic Sunroof
If your vehicle is equipped with a sunroof, you can slide or tilt your sunroof with the sunroof control lever located on the overhead console.
The sunroof can only be opened, closed, or tilted when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
• In cold and wet climates, the sunroof
may not work properly due to freezing
conditions.
• After a vehicle is washed or in a rainstorm be sure to wipe off any water that is on the sunroof before operating it.
CAUTION
Do not continue to move the sunroof
control lever after the sunroof
is fully opened, closed, or tilted.
Damage to the motor or system components could occur.
NOTICE
The sunroof cannot tilt when it is in the
slide position but can be slid while in a
tilt position.
WARNING
• Never adjust the sunroof or roller
blind while driving. This could
result in loss of control and an
accident that may cause death,
serious injury, or property damage.
• If you would like to carry items on the roof rack using a cross bar, do not operate the sunroof.
• When carrying cargo on the roof rack, do not load heavy items above the sunroof or glass roof.
• All occupants of the vehicle must wear their seat belts at all times.
Seat belts and child restraints reduce serious or fatal injuries for all occupants in the event of a collision or sudden stop.
Sliding the sunroof
Before opening or closing the sunroof,
open the roller blind.
To open or close the sunroof (manual slide feature), pull or push the sunroof control lever backward or forward to the first detent position.
Pulling the control lever downward also closes the sunroof.
To open the sunroof automatically: Pull the sunroof control lever backward to the second detent position and then release it. The sunroof will slide open all the way automatically.
To stop the sunroof sliding at any point, pull or push the sunroof control lever momentarily.
To close the sunroof automatically: Push the sunroof control lever forward to the second detent position and then release it. The sunroof will automatically close all the way.
To stop the sunroof sliding at any point, pull or push the sunroof control lever momentarily.
Automatic reversal
If an object or part of the body is detected
while the sunroof is closing automatically,
it will reverse the direction, and then
stop.
The auto reverse function does not work if a tiny obstacle is between the sliding glass and the sunroof sash. You should always check that all passengers and objects are away from the sunroof before closing it.
Tilting the sunroof
Before opening or closing the sunroof,
open the roller blind.
To open the sunroof, push the sunroof control lever upward.
To close the sunroof, pull the sunroof lever downward or forward until the sunroof moves to the desired position.
WARNING - Sunroof
• Be careful that no head, hands
and body parts are obstructed by
a closing sunroof.
• Do not extend the face, neck, arms or body outside the sunroof while driving.
• Make sure your hands and head are safely out of the way before closing a sunroof.
CAUTION

may accumulate on the guide rail.
• If you try to open the sunroof when the temperature is below freezing or when the sunroof is covered with snow or ice, the glass or the motor could be damaged.

Roller blind
The roller blinds are installed inside of
the sunroof and glass roof.
Open or close it manually when you need to.
Before opening or closing the sunroof, open the roller blind.
