Your vehicle is equipped with a power roof. The roof may be fully opened or fully closed using the power roof switch in the overhead console or the key cylinder in the tailgate.

If your roof is not fully closed or fully open when you shift out of PARK (P), the words CLOSE OR OPEN THE ROOF will appear on the DIC and a chime will sound. The message and chime cannot be cleared until the roof is fully opened or closed. See DIC Warnings and Messages for more information on DIC operation.

Your vehicle must be in PARK (P) to operate the roof. If roof operation is attempted while your vehicle is not in PARK (P), the words PARK TO OPERATE ROOF will appear.

The rear glass must be fully lowered in order to operate the roof.

Using the Overhead Console Switch

To operate the power roof using the overhead console roof switch, the ignition key must be in RUN or ACCESSORY, or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) must be active.

If the rear glass is up when the switch is pressed, the rear glass will first be lowered. The words ROOF IS OPENING will appear on the DIC and a continuous chime will sound when the roof is in motion. Continue to hold the switch until the words ROOF OPENED appear.

To close the power roof, press and hold the rear of the power roof switch. The words ROOF IS CLOSING will appear on the DIC and a continuous chime will sound when the roof is in motion. Continue to hold the switch until the words ROOF CLOSED appear.

When a roof operation is halted because of an obstruction such as ice, snow or an object in the opening, the words CLEAR ROOF OBSTRUCTION will appear on the DIC. Clear the roof obstruction and then operate the roof.

Notice: If you attempt to operate the power roof when it is frozen or blocked by ice or snow, you may damage the power roof mechanism. Do not attempt to operate the power roof when it is frozen or blocked by ice or snow.

For information on cleaning the roof track , see Cleaning the Roof Track .

Using the Tailgate Key Cylinder

To operate the power roof using the tailgate key cylinder, the rear glass must be fully lowered. Turn and hold the key clockwise to lower the rear glass. Once the glass is completely lowered, the roof may be opened by returning the key to the neutral (vertical) position and then turning and holding the key clockwise again.

The roof may be closed by turning and holding the key counterclockwise. Maintain the key in the counterclockwise position until the roof is fully closed.

Resetting the Roof Position

The words OPEN THE ROOF may appear on the DIC. This indicates a need to reset the roof position.

When this message appears, place the vehicle in PARK (P) and the ignition in RUN or ACCESSORY. Open the power roof using the power roof switch in the overhead console. When the roof has fully opened, the words CLOSE THE ROOF will appear and a chime will sound. This completes the first step of the roof reset process.

With the vehicle still in PARK (P) and the ignition in RUN or ACCESSORY, close the power roof using the power roof switch in the overhead console until the words ROOF IS CLOSED appear and a chime sounds. If the words ROOF IS CLOSED do not appear within one minute or the roof does not operate after this reset process, see your dealer for service.

Resetting the Rear Glass Position

The words TAILGATE -- SEE MANUAL may appear on the DIC after the rear glass has been fully lowered and the roof has not moved. Although this message may appear when you attempt to operate the roof, it indicates a need to reset the rear glass position.
