Locking and unlocking
WARNING
!
● Do not put head, hands or anything else out of the
sunroof opening while driving the vehicle.
● Never leave a child (or other person who might not
be capable of safe operation of the sunroof switch) in
the vehicle alone.
1
● Before operating the sunroof, make sure that noth-
ing is capable of being trapped (head, hand, finger,
etc.).
CAUTION
!
● The safety mechanism is cancelled just before the
sunroof is fully closed. This allows the sunroof to
close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fingers are
trapped in the sunroof.
NOTE
● The sunroof stops just before reaching the fully open posi-
tion.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in this position,
wind throbs is lower than with the sunroof fully open.
● When leaving the vehicle unattended, make sure you
close the sunroof and remove the ignition key.
● Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is frozen closed
(after snow fall or during extreme cold).
● Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the sunroof or roof
opening edge.
1-24
● Release the switch as soon as the sunroof reaches the fully
open or fully closed position.
● If the sunroof does not operate when the sunroof switch is
operated, release the switch and check whether something
is trapped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.
● Depending on the models of ski carriers or roof carriers,
the sunroof may contact with the carrier when the sunroof
is tilted up. Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
● Be sure to close the sunroof completely when washing the
vehicle or when leaving the vehicle.
● Be careful, not to put any wax on the weatherstrip (black
rubber) around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax,
the weatherstrip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal with
the sunroof.
● After washing the vehicle or after it has rained, wipe off
any water that is on the sunroof before operating it.
● Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the engine station-
ary will run down the battery. Operate the sunroof while
the engine is running.
