Sunroof (if equipped)
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 or ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ON position.
The sunroof is operable for 3 minutes, after the ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP button is placed in the OFF or ACC position.
However, if the front doors are opened, the sunroof cannot be operated even within 3 minutes.
-
In cold and wet climates, the sunroof may not work properly due to freezing conditions.
-
After the vehicle is washed or in a rainstorm, be sure to wipe off any water that is on the sunroof before operating it.
Sunroof motor damage
-
To prevent damage to the sunroof, periodically remove any dirt that 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.
In order to prevent accidental operation of the sunroof, especially by a child, do not let a child operate the sunroof.
Sunroof control lever
Do not continue to press the sunroof control lever after the sunroof is fully opened, closed, or tilted. Damage to the motor or system components could occur.
Sunroof operation
When closing the sunroof, make sure there are no body parts in the movement range of the sliding roof. Parts of the body could become trapped or crushed.
Never adjust the sunroof or sunshade while driving. This could result in loss of control and an accident that may cause death, serious injury, or property damage.
Make sure the sunroof is fully closed when leaving your vehicle. If the sunroof is opened, rain or snow may leak through the sunroof and wet the interior as well as increase the risk of theft.
Do not extend any luggage outside the sunroof while driving. Such action can increase the risk of an accident and cause injuries during an accident sequence.
Roof cargo
Do not operate the sunroof while using the roof rack to transport cargo. This may cause the cargo to come loose and distract the driver.
-
Make sure heads, other body parts or other objects are safely out of the way before closing the sunroof to avoid injuries or vehicle damage.
-
To avoid serious injury or death, do not extend your head, arms or body outside the sunroof while driving.
-
Improper operation of the sunroof, especially by a child, may lead to an accident. Never leave a child unattended in the vehicle.
-
Do not sit on the top of the vehicle. It may cause injuries or vehicle damage.
-
Never adjust the sunroof or sunshade while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident.
Periodically remove any dirt that may accumulate on the sunroof guide rail or between the sunroof and roof panel, which can make a noise.
