come entrapped by the power sunroof
while operating the power sunroof switch.

thrown from a vehicle with an open sun-
roof. You could also be seriously injured or
killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly

secured too.

Wind Buffeting

Wind buffeting can be described as the percep-
tion of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type

buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof
(if equipped) in certain open or partially open
positions.This is a normal occurrence and can be
minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffet-
ing occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the
sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or
open any window.

roof or a fixed glass roof, there is a sun shade that
can be open or closed. To open the sun shade,
push the tab and move the shade to a full open

opening in the motor assembly of the sunroof.
