Panorama glass roof
*
Comfort position
Each time the panorama glass roof is
completely opened or closed, it stops in
the comfort position. Use the switch to
continue the motion after this if you
wish.
In the comfort position, the wind noises
in the interior are reduced.
Anti-trapping mechanism
If the panorama glass roof or sliding
visor encounter resistance when clos-
ing from roughly one third of the roof
opening or when closing from the
raised position, the closing action is
interrupted and the panorama glass
roof and sliding visor reopen a little.
Despite the anti-trapping mecha-
nism, inspect the roof's travel path
prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of
obstructions, such as very thin objects,
and the roof would continue closing.
The anti-trapping mechanism for clos-
ing the panorama glass roof is deacti-
vated if the switch is pressed beyond
the resistance point and held there. The
closing action is interrupted when you
release the switch.

Following a power failure
Following interruptions in electrical
power, for instance when the battery is
disconnected, it is possible that the
panorama glass roof will extend to its
tilt-up position, but fail to respond to
other commands. The system must be
initialized. BMW recommends having
this work carried out by your BMW
Sports Activity Vehicle center.
Manual operation
In the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can operate the panorama glass
roof manually.
1. Take the Allen wrench and screw-
driver from onboard tool kit, refer to
page
2. Remove the cover panel on the
headliner. To do so, insert the screw-
driver from behind slightly off-center
and carefully pry the cover out
3. Insert the Allen wrench into the
opening provided and turn the pan-
orama glass roof in the desired direc-
tion.
