Opening and closing sunroof and
sliding visor together
Briefly press the switch beyond the resistance
point twice consecutively.
Briefly pressing the switch stops the motion.
Comfort modes
> Press the switch twice with the sunroof
open:
The sunroof is raised.
> When the sunroof is raised, briefly press the
switch twice in the opening direction:
The sunroof is opened all the way.
Comfort position
The sunroof is not completely open in the com-
fort position. This reduces the wind noises in
the interior.
Each time the panorama glass sunroof is com-
pletely opened or closed, it stops in the comfort
position. If desired, continue the motion follow-
ing this with the switch.
After switching off ignition
You can still operate the sunroof with the
remote control removed or the ignition
switched off for approx. 1 minute, as long as
neither of the front doors has been opened.
Pinch protection system
If the panorama glass sunroof or sliding visor
encounter resistance when closing from
roughly one third of the sunroof opening or
when closing from the raised position, the clos-
ing action is interrupted and the panorama
glass sunroof and sliding visor reopen a little.
Despite the pinch protection system,
inspect the sunroof'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 sunroof would con-
tinue closing.
<
Closing without pinch protection
system
In case of danger from outside, slide the switch
forward beyond the resistance point and hold.
The roof closes without the pinch protection
system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power loss, the sunroof may only
respond to the raise command. Then have the
system initialized. BMW recommends having
this work done by your BMW center.
Moving manually
In the event of an electrical malfunction, you can
move the sunroof manually.
1. Fold back the cover, using the screwdriver
from the toolkit at the points indicated if
necessary, refer to page
234 .
2. Remove the Allen key from the mounting
next to the toolkit and insert it in the open-
ing provided. Move the sunroof in the
desired direction. The arrow below indi-
cates the rotation direction for closing.
