RESETTING THE SUNROOF 

Whenever the vehicle battery is disconnected or discharged, or you use the emergency handle to operate the 
sunroof, you have to reset your sunroof system as follows: 

1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position. Press and hold the TILT UP button more than 15 seconds until 

the sunroof has tilted upward/downward slightly.  

2. When this is complete, Press and hold the TILT UP button once again until the sunroof has raised and 

returned to the maximum TILT UP position. When this is complete, the sunroof system is reset.
