Keys and doors
To close the sunroof:
Push the switch to the close side then
quickly release it. The sunroof will stop at
a position 20 cm (8 in) away from the fully
closed position. Push the switch again to
close the sunroof completely.
To stop the sunroof at a desired position,
momentarily push or pull the switch.
& Anti-entrapment function
When the sunroof senses a substantial
enough object trapped between its glass
and the vehicle's roof during closure, it
automatically moves back by 15 cm (6 in)
from that point and then stops. The anti-
entrapment function may also be activated
by a strong shock on the sunroof even
when there is nothing trapped.
CAUTION
Never attempt to test this function
using fingers, hands or other parts
of your body.
NOTE
. For the sake of safety, it is recom-
mended that you avoid driving with the
sunroof fully opened.
. Driving with the sunroof fully open
can cause an annoying sound to gen-
erate at high speeds. If such a condi-
tion has been encountered, use the
sunroof at the initial stop position of 50
cm (20 in) away from the fully closed
position.
. If the sunroof cannot be closed
through switch operation because of
system failure, it can be closed manu-
ally using a hex-head wrench. For the
procedure, refer to
sunroof cannot be closed"

& Sun shade

backward by hand while the sunroof is

shade also moves back.
