Raising

From ignition key position 1: briefly
press the switch.

Pressing the switch again halts the
movement immediately.

If you briefly press the switch in the
'Raise' direction when the sunroof is
open, the sunroof moves to the 'Raised'
limit position.

After the ignition is switched off: you
can still operate the sunroof for up to
15 minutes, unless a front door was
opened.

The deflector is pushed back slightly as
the roof panel rises.

Do not force the deflector closed
when the roof is raised, as this

would damage the actuating mecha-
nism. When leaving the car, always take
out the ignition key and close the doors,
otherwise children, for example, could
operate the roof and possibly injure
themselves.

Anti-trap protection

If the glass sunroof encounters resist-
ance in any position more than approxi-
mately midway along its closing move-
ment, or as it closes from the raised
position, the closing operation is inter-
rupted and the glass sunroof reopens
slightly.

Despite this anti-trap protection,
always make sure that the roof is

unobstructed when it is closed, since in
extreme cases the closing movement
might not be interrupted, for example
by very thin objects.
You can restrict anti-trap retraction by
pressing the switch past the pressure
point and holding it down. The roof
opens only a short distance. The pro-
tective function is deactivated if you
press the switch past the pressure
point again within approximately
2 seconds and hold it down.

Manual operation

If there is an electrical defect, the glass
sunroof can be operated manually.

1. Pull out the switch, reach into the

aperture and press out the cover

2. Use the Allen key from the car's

toolkit, see page

140

, to move the

glass sunroof in the required direc-
tion.

Initialising glass sunroof

If the glass sunroof no longer
opens or closes automatically

after being operated manually, it has to
be initialised.
