Key-off operation function

The key-off operation function makes it possible to operate the sliding roof for approximately 45 seconds after the engine switch is turned from on (IG) to off, if both the driver door and front passenger door are not opened.

Key-linked function*

  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is not in the vehicle, the driver door is unlocked, and the driver door key cylinder is turned and held in the unlock position for 1.5 seconds or more, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) activates the sliding roof motor to open the sliding roof while the key cylinder is turned.
  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is not in the vehicle, the driver door is locked, and the driver door key cylinder is turned and held in the lock position for 1.5 seconds or more, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) activates the sliding roof motor to close the sliding roof while the key cylinder is turned.

HINT:

This function is linked with the power window key-linked function.

Wireless transmitter-linked function*

When the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) receives an unlock signal from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly continuously for longer than 3 seconds, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) activates the sliding roof motor to open the sliding roof while the switch of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is being pressed.

HINT:

This function is linked with the power window wireless transmitter-linked function.

Sliding roof open warning function

When the engine switch is turned from on (IG) to off and the driver door is opened with the sliding roof open, the buzzer in the combination meter assembly sounds once and a warning message is displayed on the multi-information display.
