To use the overhead console box, push on the front edge (1) and open the lid. To close the lid, push the front edge (1) until it latches. Do not put heavy or sharp items in the box.
WARNING:
Never drive with the overhead console

CAUTION:
If you park your vehicle outdoors in
direct sunlight or in hot weather, the
eyeglasses compartment can get
very hot since it is close to the roof.
So, when parking in such conditions: • Do not leave eyeglasses in the compartment. The heat may distort plastic lenses or frames.
• Do not place flammable items, such as a lighter, in the compartment.
The heat may cause a fire.
NOTE:
An aftermarket garage door opener can be
installed in the front side overhead console
box.
