Electric Sliding/Tilting Roof - Skoda Fabia Owner's Manual

46 Unlocking and locking
Operation in winter
Ice accumulating on the surface of the windows during the winter may result in a
greater resistance when closing the windows and the window may stop and go down
several centimetres
Proceed as follows to close the window fully:

Switch on the ignition,

slightly pull on the upper edge of the relevant button and hold it until the window
is closed,

if the window goes down/stops, repeat the cycle (it is necessary to put the force
limiter out of operation  page 45 - now the window closes with full force!).
WARNING
The system is fitted with a force limiter  page 45. If there is an obstacle, the
closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centimeters.
You should then take particular care when closing the windows! You may
otherwise suffer severe injuries as a result of getting an arm, for example,
jammed in the window!

Electric sliding/tilting roof*

Description
Fig. 34 Control dial for the power
sliding/tilting roof
The sliding/tilting roof is operated by means of the control dial
tions when the ignition is switched on. The control dial has several positions.
After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open, close and tilt the sliding/tilting
roof for approx. 10 minutes. It is no longer possible to operate the sliding/tilting roof
after opening one of the front doors, however.
Note
If the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, it is possible that the
sliding/tilting roof does not close fully. Here you have to set the control dial to the
A
switch position and press it forward for about 10 seconds.

When the sliding/tilting roof is in the comfort position, the intensity of the wind noise
is much less.
The sun screen is also opened automatically when the roof slides open. You can slide
the sun screen into the opened or closed position by hand when the sliding/tilting roof
is closed.
Caution
It may be necessary during winter to remove any ice and snow in the area of the
sliding/tilting roof before opening it in order to prevent damaging the opening mech-
anism and the seal.
