2. Release the "TILT UP" switch.

3. Push and hold the "TILT UP" switch until the glass reaches the fully tilt-up position. Continue to hold for approximately 11 seconds.

The glass will begin to move. Keep holding the "TILT UP" switch while the glass cycles through the entire range of positions, returns to the closed position, and stops. The moon roof is now re-initialized.
