HOW TO ADJUST THE FULLY CLOSED POSITION
<FORCED FULLY CLOSED POSITION
ADJUSTMENT MODE>

1. With the roof lid glass stopped (the position of the roof lid

glass can be any position between fully opened and fully
closed), press and hold the up switch.
NOTE: If operating the up switch moves the sunroof nor-
mally, use the open switch to fully open the roof lid glass.
After the roof lid glass stops, press and hold the up switch.

2. Use the up switch to set the roof lid glass to the tilt-up

position. The roof lid glass activates for approximately 30
mm and stops automatically when the switch is pressed
once. Repeat this operation until the tilt-up position is
reached and hold there for 3 seconds so that the fully closed
position learning is completed.

HOW TO ADJUST THE FULLY CLOSED POSITION
<SUCH AS WHEN THE SAFETY FUNCTION IS
ACTIVATED CONSECUTIVELY FIVE TIMES>

Use the up switch to set the roof lid glass to the tilt-up position.
The roof lid glass activates for approximately 30 mm and stops
automatically when the switch is pressed once. Repeat this
operation until the tilt-up position is reached and hold there for
3 seconds so that the fully closed position learning is com-
pleted.

SUNROOF TIMER MECHANISM

In cases except the following, the basic operation
and jam preventing mechanism will be maintained
for 30 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to
the "LOCK" (OFF) position (Sunroof timer function).

• If you open a door within that period (i.e. a door

switch is on), the sunroof timer function will be
cancelled immediately.

• If you turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)

position while the timer is working, the sunroof
will continue moving until it closes fully, regard-
less of the time-out period.

SAFETY MECHANISM

• If any obstacle such as a hand or a head is

detected to be pinched during a sunroof lid glass
closing operation, the sunroof lid glass is opened
by approximately 200 mm (7.9 inches) or more.
(Safety mechanism)

• During the sunroof lid glass closing operation, by

continuing the sunroof close switch operation, the
sunroof can be forcibly closed without activating
the safety mechanism even when the obstacle is
detected to be pinched.

• During the safety mechanism activation, when

the sunroof close switch is operated, the sunroof
lid glass stops. By continuing the close switch
operation, the sunroof lid glass can be forcibly
closed without activating the safety mechanism
even when the obstacle is detected to be
pinched.
