The rear window roller blind

The rear window roller blind is available as either a
mechanical or an electric version.
In the mechanical variant, the roller blind is pulled
●
up via a handle and is locked in this position.
The electric variant is actuated using a button in the
●
centre console.

How it works:
The rear window roller blind guides are located in the
C-pillars. After pressing the button, a drive motor
pushes a sliding block located in each guide upwards
via two Bowden cables. The rear window roller blind
is secured to these sliding blocks.
In its upper terminal position, the drive motor is
deactivated via an electronic force limiter. This
prevents body parts from becoming trapped between
the rear window roller blind and the surrounding trim
components.
