Sliding/tilt sunroof

Automatic opening and closing

Press the switch past the resistance
point briefly: the sunroof travels to
either the fully-closed or fully-open
position.

With the sunroof open, press the
switch briefly toward "Lift:" the
sunroof automatically extends to its
fully raised position.

Pressing the switch again briefly stops
the motion immediately.

Safety feature

If the sliding/tilt sunroof encounters
resistance at a point roughly past the
middle of its travel when it is closing,
the closing cycle is interrupted and the
sunroof will open again slightly.

Despite this safety feature, always
be careful to ensure that the

closing path of the roof is not
obstructed. Otherwise, an object might
not touch the contact strip in some situ-
ations (very thin objects, for instance).
You can disable this safety feature by
pressing the switch beyond the resis-
tance point and holding it.

Power loss or malfunction

In the event of an electrical system
malfunction, the sliding/tilt sunroof can
be manually operated. Refer to
