Trap protection

If the glass sunroof encounters resis-
tance when closing from approximately
the half-closed position or when closing
from the raised position, the closing
operation is interrupted and the glass
sunroof reopens slightly.

Despite trap protection, always
make sure that the sunroof can

close without obstruction, otherwise in
some cases, e.g. with thin objects, it is
not guaranteed that the closing opera-
tion will be interrupted.
Trap protection is restricted when the
switch is pressed and held beyond the
pressure point. The sunroof opens only
slightly. If the switch is pressed and
held beyond the pressure point again
within approx. 2 seconds, trap protec-
tion is overridden.

Manual operation

The glass sunroof can also be operated
manually in the event of an electrical
malfunction.

1. Pull out the switch, then reach into

the exposed opening and press out
the cover

2. Use the Allen key from the onboard

tool kit, refer to page

136

, to turn the

glass sunroof in the desired direc-
tion.

Initializing the glass sunroof

If the glass sunroof can no longer
be automatically opened or closed

after manual operation, it must be ini-
tialized.

With the key in ignition position 1 or
higher, press and hold the switch
beyond the pressure point until the
glass sunroof moves slightly.
