Check if there are any leaks in the sunroof by the following pro-
cedure.
1. Fully close the sunroof lid glass.
2. Adjust the water pressure so that water comes out of the 

hose to a height of approximately 50 cm (19.7 inches) when 
the hose is held vertically facing upwards.

3. Hold the end of the hose approximately 30 cm (11.8 inches) 

above the roof and let the water run onto the weatherstrip for 
5 minutes or more.

4. Check if any water leaks can be found in the room while 

watering. Even though there are any water leaks around the 
sunroof lid glass, it can be acceptable as long as water is 
caught in the drip area.
