Main Menu Table Of Contents Moonroof, Parking Brake Auto Reverse If the moonroof runs into any obstacle while it is closing automatically, it will reverse direction, and then stop. To close the moonroof, remove the obstacle, then use the moonroof switch again. Auto reverse stops sensing when the moonroof is almost closed. You should always check that all passengers and objects are away from the moonroof before closing it. You can open and close the moonroof for up to 10 minutes after you turn off the ignition switch. Opening either front door cancels this function. Parking Brake RELEASE HANDLE Instruments and Controls If you try to open the moonroof in below-freezing temperatures, or when it is covered with snow or ice, you can damage the moonroof panel or its motor. PARKING BRAKE PEDAL Opening or closing the moonroof on someone's hands or fingers can cause serious injury. Make sure all hands and fingers are clear of the moonroof before opening or closing it. To apply the parking brake, push the pedal down with your foot. To release it, pull the release handle fully. The parking brake indicator on the instrument panel should go out when the parking brake is fully released (see page 65). You will also see a ''RELEASE PARKING BRAKE'' message on the multi-information display (see page 81). CONTINUED 2009 MDX 153
