Power tilt/sliding sunroof

Opening and closing power tilt/sliding
sunroof
Warning!
When closing the tilt/sliding sunroof, make
sure there is no danger of anyone being
harmed by the closing procedure.
If the tilt/sliding sunroof is blocked while
closing and reopens, it can be closed with
greater force if you pull the switch to the re-
sistance point in the direction indicated by
3
arrow within 2 seconds.
If the tilt/sliding sunroof is blocked again
and reopens, you can close it with deactivat-
ed obstruction sensor function by pulling
the switch again to the resistance point in
the direction indicated by arrow
seconds.
When closing the tilt/sliding sunroof with
the obstruction sensor function deactivated,
make sure no one can become trapped, as
G
this could result in serious or fatal injuries.
The opening/closing procedure of the
tilt/sliding sunroof can be immediately halt-
ed by releasing the switch or, if the switch
was moved past the resistance point and re-
leased, by moving the switch in any direc-
tion.
The tilt/sliding sunroof is made out of glass.
In the event of an accident, the glass may
shatter. This may result in an opening in the
roof.
In a vehicle rollover, occupants not wearing
their seat belts or not wearing them properly
may be thrown out of the opening. Such an
3
opening also presents a potential for injury
within 2
for occupants wearing their seat belts
properly as entire body parts or portions of
them may protrude from the passenger
compartment.
