To open the moonroof:
Press the rear side of the “OPEN/CLOSE”
switch. The sunshade will also be opened
together with the moonroof. The moonroof
will stop at a position approximately 6 in
(15 cm) away from the fully opened
position...
This position is for restarting a stalled
engine. In this position, the transmission is
neutral, meaning that the wheels and
transmission are not locked. Therefore,
the vehicle will roll freely, even on the
slightest incline unless the parking brake
or foot brake is applied...
