Default Window/Sunroof Question

My new ES should be here in a couple weeks. Can anyone tell me if you can vent the windows and/or the sunroof? Or do you just have the option of closing them completely or opening them completely? For example, what if you have a dog in the car (not that I do this) and you just wanted to vent the window or sunroof? With the one-touch close, is this possible?

I currently have an 02 es300 and you can vent the windows & sunroof by holding down "unlock" button on remote/key. Expecting my Es350 in a few weeks.
There was a link to a video posted from the Lexus e-showroom on this forum. They mention that you can lower the windows by holding down the "unlock" button which is same as previous years..
However, they didn't mention if it opened the sunroof too

You can open all the windows and sunroof using the remote to vent the car.

When closing the car I think you can make it go to a certain point, then stop the process. I know this worked for the windows, cant' remember the sunroof. I'll try this again tomorrow and report back.

You can vent the windows by pressing the unlock on the key fob for 5 seconds but the sunroof will not vent - Just tested.

I tested this on my Prem Pkg car this morning.

Venting all windows and sunroof:
- press and hold unlock button on keyfob. After 5 seconds the windows and sunroof start to open.
- you can stop at halfway - or wherever you want.
- to continue, just press and hold unlock again on the keyfob, wait another 5 seconds and it continues to open the windows and sunroof until they reach their full open position.

Closing windows and sunroof:
- press and hold the button on the door. After 5 seconds the windows will start going up, and the sunroof will start to close. You can stop this whenever you want by releasing the button.
- To continue to raise the windows\close sunroof, just press and hold again until all the glass is closed.

I thnk CGLex07 has the UL package. I don't. Maybe that is the difference

The auto opening(venting) on a UL equipped package that has the glass type of moon roof does NOT open by pressing an holding the keyfob button. The only thing that this operates is the windows.

From what I read, this option cannot be changed by the dealer.

Thanks! I'm getting the Premium Plus package, so this helps.
