SLIDING/TILT SUNROOF* ROLLER SUN BLIND*
Safety feature
As of approximately the middle of the roof
opening, if the sliding/tilt sunroof encoun-
ters resistance during closing, the closing
operation is interrupted and the sunroof
opens again slightly.
Despite this safety feature, be
extremely careful that the closing
path of the sunroof is not obstructed when-
ever it is closed. Otherwise, triggering the
closing-force limitation may not be
ensured in some situations (with very thin
objects, for instance).
You can override this safety feature by
pressing the switch beyond the resistance
point and holding it.<
