Safety feature
If the glass roof encounters resistance
>
when it is closing from the raised posi-
tion
>
when it is closing from a point roughly
past the middle of its travel
the closing cycle is interrupted and the
glass roof will open again slightly.
Despite this safety feature you should
always inspect the roof's travel range
prior to closing it, as the safety feature
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the
roof would continue closing.
Pressing the switch beyond the resistance
point and holding it limits the response of
the safety feature. The roof only opens a
short distance.
If you again press the switch past the resis-
tance point and hold it in position within
about 1.5 seconds, the safety feature will
be deactivated.
<
When you close the glass roof, it will
slow down as it approaches the end
of its travel path; this is to allow the safety
feature to respond more precisely to any
obstructions encountered in this critical
range.
<
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
Following interruptions in electrical power,
for instance, when the battery is discon-
nected, it is possible that the glass roof will
extend to its tilt-up position, but fail to
respond to other commands. Should this
occur, please have the roof reinitialized at
your BMW center.
Malfunctions
In the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can operate the glass roof manually:
1.
Take out the interior lamp, reach behind
the opening, press out the cover
2.
Insert the Allen wrench supplied with
the onboard tool kit, refer to page
,
in the opening provided. Turn to slide
the glass roof in the desired direction.
