Opening and closing
With the ignition key in position 1 or
higher
> Slide the switch until you feel resis-
tance: the sunroof opens or closes as
long as you hold the switch
> Slide the switch past the pressure
point: the sunroof moves automati-
cally.
Tapping the switch again stops the
motion immediately.
The headliner retracts with the sunroof
while it is opening.
After the ignition has been switched off,
you can still operate the sunroof for up
to 15 minutes, as long as no one opens
any of the doors.
For convenience closing via the door
lock or the remote control, refer to
pages 32 and 33.
Raising the sunroof
With the ignition key in position 1 or
higher: tap the switch.
Tapping the switch again stops the
motion immediately.
If you briefly press the switch in the
raise direction while the sunroof is
open, the sunroof will rise to its upper-
most position.
After the ignition has been switched off,
you can still operate the sunroof for up
to 15 minutes, as long as no one opens
any of the doors.
The headliner insert slides back some-
what when you raise the roof.
Do not use force to close the
headliner insert while the sunroof
is in its raised position, as damage to
the mechanism could result.<
Safety feature
If the sliding/tilt sunroof encounters
resistance
> when it is closing from the raised
position
> when it is closing from a point
roughly past the middle of its travel,
the closing cycle is interrupted and the
sliding/tilt sunroof will open again
slightly.
Despite this safety feature, be
extremely careful to ensure that
the closing path of the sunroof is not
obstructed. Remember that the safety
mechanism may not be able to detect
obstructions – very thin objects, for
instance, under all circumstances.
You can override this safety feature by
pressing the switch beyond the pres-
sure point and holding it.<
