Sunroof*
NOTE
WARNING
NOTE
The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the sunroof to be subjected to a physi-
cal shock similar to that caused by a trapped
hand or head.
Do not put head, hands or anything else
out of the sunroof opening while driving
the vehicle.
Never leave the vehicle without removing
the key.
Never leave a child (or other person who
might not be capable of safe operation of
the sunroof switch) in the vehicle alone.
Depending on the models of ski carriers or
roof carriers, the sunroof may touch the car-
rier when the sunroof is tilted up. Be careful
when tilting up the sunroof if such a ski car-
rier or a roof carrier is installed.
Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving
the vehicle.
Be careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof
opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal
with the sunroof.
After washing the vehicle or after it has
rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun-
roof before operating it.

If the safety mechanism should be activated 5
or more times consecutively, normal closing
of the sunroof will be aborted.
As an emergency measure, the sunroof can be
closed bit by bit until the sunroof is com-
pletely closed by repeatedly pressing switch
(2).
After that, the sunroof can be set the initial-
ized state in the following procedure.
1. Move the sunroof in slide open position.
2. Press the tilt up switch (2) continually in
10 seconds.
NOTE
The sunroof stops just before reaching the
fully open position.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in
this position, wind buffeting is lower than
with the sunroof fully open.
When leaving the vehicle unattended, make
sure you close the sunroof.
Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro-
zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme
cold).
Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the
sunroof or roof opening edge.
Release the switch as soon as the sunroof
reaches the fully open or fully closed posi-
tion.
If the sunroof does not operate when the
sunroof switch is operated, release the
switch and check whether something is trap-
ped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped,
have the sunroof checked at a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
