has operated, even if the 

“CLOSE” side of the switch is 

pressed again, the electronic sun-

shade will not move in the close 

direction until the reverse opera-

tion has stopped completely.

The USB Type-C charging ports 
are used to supply 3 A of elec-
tricity at 5 V to external devices.
The USB Type-C charging ports 
are for charging only. They are 
not designed for data transfer or 
other purposes.
Depending on the external 
device, it may not charge prop-
erly. Refer to the manual 
included with the device before 
using a USB charging port.

WARNING

■

Opening and closing the elec-

tronic sunshade

●

Check to make sure that all pas-

sengers do not have any part of 

their body in a position where it 

could be caught when the elec-

tronic sunshade is being oper-

ated.

●

Do not let a child operate the 

electronic sunshade. Closing 

the electronic sunshade on 

someone can cause death or 

serious injury.

■

Jam protection function

●

Never use any part of your body 

to intentionally activate the jam 

protection function.

●

The jam protection function may 

not work if something gets 

caught just before the electronic 

sunshade is fully closed. Also, 

the jam protection function is 

not designed to operate while 

the switch is being pressed. 

Take care so that your fingers, 

etc., do not get caught.

■

To prevent burns or injuries

Do not touch the area between 

the underside of the panoramic 

moon roof and the electronic sun-

shade. Your hand may get caught 

and you could injure yourself. 

Also, if the vehicle is left in direct 

sunlight for a long time, the under-

side of the panoramic moon roof 

could become very hot and could 

cause burns.

About connected external 

devices

Depending on the connected exter-

nal device, charging may occasion-

ally be suspended and then start 

again. This is not a malfunction.

A portable device can be 
charged by just placing Qi stan-
dard wireless charge compatible 
portable devices according to 
the Wireless Power Consortium, 
such as smartphones and 
mobile batteries, etc., on the 
charge area.
This function cannot be used 
with portable devices that are 
larger than the charging area. 

NOTICE

■

To prevent damage to the 

USB Type-C charging ports

●

Do not insert foreign objects into 

the ports.

●

Do not spill water or other liq-

uids into the ports.

●

When the USB Type-C charging 

ports are not in use, close the 

lids. If a foreign object or liquid 

enters a port may cause a short 

circuit.

●

Do not apply excessive force to 

or impact the USB Type-C 

charging ports.

●

Do not disassemble or modify 

the USB Type-C charging ports.

■

To prevent damage to exter-

nal devices

●

Do not leave external devices in 

the vehicle. The temperature 

inside the vehicle may become 

high, resulting in damage to an 

external device.

●

Do not push down on or apply 

unnecessary force to an exter-

nal device or the cable of an 

external device while it is con-

nected.

■

To prevent 12-volt battery dis-

When charging is complete 
and after a fixed time in the 
charge suspension state, 
charging restarts.



If a portable device is moved 
significantly within the 
charging area, the charging 
coil may disconnect and 
charging may temporarily be 
stopped. However, if a 
charging coil is detected 

within the charging area, the 
charging coil inside the wire-

Turn off the wireless charger and 

confirm that the noise has 

decreased. If the noise decreases, 

continuously pushing the power 

supply switch of the wireless char-

When charging, the wireless 

charging device and portable device 

will get warmer, however this is not 

a malfunction.

When a portable device gets warm 

while charging, charging may stop 

due to the protection function on the 

portable device side. In this case, 

when the temperature of the porta-

Operation sounds may be heard 

when the power switch is pressed to

To prevent failure or damage 

to data

●

Do not bring magnetic cards, 

such as credit cards, or mag-

netic recording media, etc., 

close to the charger while 

charging, otherwise, data may 

disappear under the influence of 

magnetism. Also, do not bring 

precision instruments such as 

wrist watches, etc., close to the 

charger, as such objects may 

break.

●

Do not perform charging with a 

contactless smart card, such as 

a credit card, between the 

charging surface of a portable 

device and the charging area. 

The IC chip in the card may 

become extremely hot, possibly 

damaging the portable device or 

smart card.

Be extra careful to not charge a 

portable device with a case or 

cover which a contactless smart 

card can be inserted.
