Sun Roof Operation
The sunroof is powered by 12 volts, and features a glass panel with
a manually operated sunshade. It is electrically operated from a potentiometer
switch, that is located in the overhead console (center). The sunroof is equipped
with a pinch guard for safety. Refer to Pinch Guard.
To open the sunroof, turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, then
turn the sunroof rotary type switch to the rearward position. The glass panel
will retract and slide rearward into the storage space between the roof panel
and the headliner. As the glass retracts, the wind deflector extends above
the roof line.
To close sunroof, turn the potentiometer switch in the forward position
until the glass completely closes, retracting the wind deflector and sealing
against the roof opening flange. If the operator turns the rotary type switch
past the forward position, after the glass has completely closed. The rear
of the glass panel will rise to the vent position. To close the glass, turn
the rotary switch to the forward position again and the glass will lower and
reseal to the roof opening. The sunroof potentiometer switch allows the sunroof
be set to many positions.
Manual Sunroof Operation
In event of a power failure, the sunroof panel may be opened or closed
by using the special tool (screwdriver) that has been provided in the tool
kit in the rear compartment (with the jack). There is a cover on the rear
of the overhead console (center), which is easily removed. This will allow
manual cranking of the motor and drive gear. After each interruption of power,
the motor must be reprogrammed.
Sunroof Control Switch
The sunroof is equipped with a potentiometer which allows you to select
many different sunroof opening positions. The potentiometer module is non
serviceable, and is made in conjunction with the motor. The scan tool is also
available to diagnose and check the function of the sunroof potentiometer
module. If the motor is removed it must be reprogrammed.
Reprogramming Control Functions
As optional equipment the vehicle many have a sunroof. The electrically
controlled sunroof is adjustable and has a transparent glass top with a tilting
feature. There is a pinch guard protector built into the system. Preselection
switch (rotary knob) allows the glass panel to be adjusted to any position.
If the preselection switch (rotary knob) is actuated while the glass panel
is moving or if several adjustment changes are made on the preselection switch
(rotary knob) immediately after one another, the glass panel obeys the last
command only. If the preselection switch (rotary knob) is turned past the
glass panel closed position before another position, the glass panel goes
to last selected position without first closing.
When the battery is disconnected or power is lost to the programmer,
these steps must be followed to reprogram the sunroof. If after programming,
the sunroof opens again each time it is Closed, the reprogramming procedure
must be repeated, up to three times.
• | Ignition in RUN position. |
• | Place preselection switch (rotary knob) in the closed position
and press in on switch for 3 seconds after glass panel closes. |
• | Place preselection switch (rotary knob) in the Vent position
and press in switch and hold for seconds after glass panel reaches Vent position. |
• | Place preselection switch (rotary knob) in the Full Open position
and press in on switch and hold for 3 seconds after glass panel reaches
Full Open position. |
• | Place preselection switch (rotary knob) in the Closed position
and press in on switch for 3 seconds after glass panel closes. |
Pinch Guard
- Pinch guard is in a effect when the glass panel
is open:
• | The pinch guard is effective in an opening width of 4-200 mm
(0.15 in to 8 in). |
• | If an obstruction is met, the glass panel returns to an opening
width of 220 mm (8.5 in). |
- Pinch guard with tilted glass panel:
• | The pinch guard is effective when the glass panel is tilted 4-40 mm
(0.15 to 1.5 in). |
• | If an obstruction is met, the glass panel returns to the glass
panel fully tilted position. |
• | The pinch guard can be overruled with the ignition switched to
RUN position, to bring the glass panel into the closed position, by placing
the (rotary knob) in the closed position and pressing knob. |
Closing Function
Closing of the glass panel can be prevented before the ignition is switch
to the OFF position by tapping the preselection switch (rotary knob). At the
closing point, the sunroof motor operates at decreased speed.
Memory Function
If the glass panel is in a different position as was specified on the
preselection switch rotary knob (e.g. if the glass panel was closed by the
central door locking system), it can be moved to the desired position with
the ignition switch in the RUN position by and tapping the preselection switch
rotary knob.
