BASIC OPERATION
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, regardless 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.
