Anti-Pinch Feature

and stops the sunroof from closing
at the point of the obstruction.
The sunroof then returns to the
full-open position.
Keys, Doors, and Windows
Dirt and debris may collect on the
sunroof seal or in the track. This
could cause an issue with sunroof
operation or noise. It could also
plug the water drainage system.
Periodically open the sunroof and
remove any obstacles or loose
debris. Wipe the sunroof seal and
roof sealing area using a clean
cloth, mild soap, and water. Do not
remove grease from the sunroof.
