Keys and doors 2-25 After washing the vehicle or after it rains, wipe away water on the roof prior to opening the moonroof to prevent drops of water from falling into the passenger compartment. NOTE If the moonroof cannot be closed through switch operation because of system failure, it can be closed manually using a hex-head wrench. For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof – if the moonroof cannot be closed” section in chapter 9 “In case of emergency”. Never let anyone’s hands, arms, head or any objects protrude from the moonroof. A person could be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or turns sharply or if the vehicle is involved in an accident. To avoid serious personal injury caused by entrapment, you must do the following. Before closing the moonroof, make sure that no one’s hands, arms, head or other objects will be accidentally caught in the moonroof. Before leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the ignition switch for safety and never allow an unattended child to remain in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result in injury to a child operating the moonroof. Do not sit on the edge of the open moonroof. Do not operate the moonroof if falling snow or extremely cold conditions have caused it to freeze shut. The sun shade can be slid forward or backward by hand while the moonroof is closed. If the moonroof is opened, the sun shade also moves back. Sun shades 200416
