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 is in the ON position.

• After the vehicle is washed or in a rainstorm, be sure to wipe off any water that is on the sunroof before operating it.

CAUTION
Do not continue to move the sunroof control lever after the sunroof is fully opened, closed, or tilted.

Damage to the motor or system components could occur.

NOTICE
The sunroof cannot slide when it is in the tilt position nor can it be tilted while in an open or slide position.
