Closing without pinch protection
system
When there is danger outside the vehicle, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Slide the switch forward past the resistance
point and hold it there. The pinch protection
system is limited and the sunroof opens
slightly if the closing force exceeds a certain
value.
2. Within about 4 seconds, slide the switch
forward again beyond the resistance point
and hold it there. 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 carried out by your BMW Sports
Activity Vehicle Center.
Moving manually*
In the event of an electrical malfunction, you can
move the sunroof manually:
1. Remove trim piece. To do so, gently lift the
corner of the trim piece with a screwdriver.

2. Using the screwdriver, press in the clamps
one after the other, arrows 1, tilt the cover
panel down, arrow 2, and remove.
3. Release and disconnect the motor plug.
This significantly reduces the effort
required for the manual movement.
4. Take the Allen wrench
the onboard tool kit, refer to page 269, and
insert it into the opening provided. Move the
glass sunroof in the desired direction.
5. Reconnect the plug.
