Force limiter
The sliding/tilting roof is fitted with a force limiter. The sliding/tilting roof stops
and moves back several centimetres when it cannot be closed because there is
something in the way (e.g. ice). The sliding/tilting roof can be fully closed without
a force limiter by pressing the switch on the recess down and then pushing it for-
ward until the sliding/tilting roof is fully closed
WARNING
When closing the sliding/tilting roof proceed with caution to avoid causing
crushing injuries - risk of injury!
CAUTION
During the winter it may be necessary to remove any ice and snow in the vicinity
of the sliding/tilting roof before opening it to prevent any damage to the opening
mechanism.
