The sliding/tilting roof panel is controlled by a rotary switch. To move/retract the panel, the switch can be set to several fixed positions. The switch only works when the ignition is on. Raising the panel is only possible when the switch is in position 1.
The sunroof can be opened and closed within ten minutes even after the ignition has been switched off.
However, the rotary switch is immediately disabled when one of the front doors is opened.
Pull back/lift
Comfortable position
- Turn the switch to position 1 until the point of resistance and the switch locks.
Full retraction
- Turn the switch to position 2.
Climb
- To fully raise the roof panel, press and release the switch when it is in the home position 0. By pressing the switch longer, the panel can be moved to any position.
The comfortable roof position is characterized by less wind noise compared to a fully open roof.
When the roof panel is moved away, the sunblind automatically opens. With the roof panel closed, the blind can also be closed by hand.
It is recommended to close the sunblind when the vehicle is parked in the sun. When the car is parked or in case of sudden rain (with sun shade closed) do not forget to close the sliding roof panel.
Closing
Closing the sliding panel
- To close the roof panel, turn the switch to position 0.
Lift panel closing
- Pull the switch and hold it until the lift panel is in the desired position.
- By briefly pulling the switch, the roof panel closes automatically. By repeated short-term action on the switch, the panel can be stopped in any position.
Safety closure
The sliding roof panel has overload protection. If it cannot be closed normally, this can be done by continuously pulling back on the rotary switch. The switch must be in position 0.
Attention. Inattentive or uncontrolled closing of the sliding/tilting panel can result in injury! Therefore, when leaving the vehicle, always remove the ignition key from the lock.
Comfort locking
The open sliding/tilting roof panel can also be closed from the outside.
