Sliding sunroof
102
Do not allow anything to protrude from the
sliding sunroof. Otherwise, the seals could be
damaged.
Resonance noises can occur in addition to the
usual airflow noises when the sliding sunroof is
open. They are caused by minor pressure fluc-
tuations in the vehicle interior. Change the posi-
tion of the sliding sunroof or open a side window
slightly. This will lessen or eliminate the noise.
Sliding sunroof reversing feature
Your vehicle may be fitted with a sliding sunroof
or a panorama sliding sunroof. In the following
section, the term "sliding sunroof" refers to both
types of sliding sunroof.
The sliding sunroof is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If an object blocks or
restricts the sliding sunroof during the closing
process, the sliding sunroof opens again auto-
matically. The automatic reversing feature is,
however, only an aid and is no substitute for your
attention when closing the sliding roof.
