ELECTRIC SUNROOF
WARNING
Before operating the electric sunroof
you should verify it is free of
obstructions and ensure that children
and/or pets are not in the proximity of the
sunroof opening. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury. It is the
primary responsibility of the supervising
adults to never leave a child unattended
in a vehicle and to never leave the keys in
an unattended vehicle.
Note: When the switches are operated
often during a short period of time, the
system might become inoperable for a
certain time to prevent damage due to
overheating.
Note: The electric sunroof can also be
operated with the ignition off via the global
opening and global closing function. See
Global Opening and Closing (page 37).
There are two ways of opening the sunroof
– the rear of the sunroof lifts open or the
sunroof opens from the front, sliding back
under the roof. The sunroof opens and
closes whilst the switch is pressed.
Switch on the ignition to operate the
electric sunroof.
The power sunroof is operated by a switch
located between the sun visors.
