To vent:
• The moon roof is equipped with an automatic, one-touch, vent feature.
To tilt the moon roof into the vent position (when the glass panel is
closed), press and release the front portion of the control.
• To close the moon roof from the vent position, press and hold the rear
portion of the control until the glass panel stops moving.
The moon roof has a sliding shade that can be opened or closed when
the glass panel is shut. To close the shade, pull it toward the front of the
vehicle.
Note: If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is
installed, the moon roof needs to be opened to the vent position to reset
the moon roof positions.
Note: If you open and close the moon roof repeatedly, the moon roof
motor may overheat and shut down for 45 seconds while the motor
cools.
Accessory delay: With accessory delay, the window switches, audio
system, and moon roof (if equipped) may be used for up to 10 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned off or until either front door is opened.
LIFTGATE

unlock the liftgate (with the
power door locks or the remote

control button under the license
plate lamp shield.
• To open the liftgate, unlock the
liftgate (with the power door

push the middle control button
under the license plate lamp
shield.
To lock the liftgate and the liftgate window, use the power door locks.
Do not open the liftgate or liftgate glass in a garage or other enclosed
area with a low ceiling. If the liftgate glass is raised and the liftgate is
also opened, both liftgate and glass could be damaged against a low
ceiling.
Do not leave the liftgate or liftgate glass open while driving. Doing so
could cause serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as
allowing carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
