Floating Headliner; Wind Deflector - BMW E61 Sports Wagon 530xiT Owner's Manual

Floating Headliner

Opening
On opening the front part of the headliner moves over the rear part of the floating headlin-
er. The special feature of the floating headliner is that it can be opened fully without the
sunroof being open or tilted.
Vent Mode
When the panorama glass sunroof is moved into the tilt position, the floating headliner is
moved into the vent position.
The vent position reduces the suction effect at high road speeds.

Wind Deflector

The wind deflector is regulated according to road speed. When the sunroof is opened the
wind deflector goes from the down position to the intermediate position. It remains in this
position until road speed is seen by the MDS. Then the wind deflector is placed in the
extended position. At roads speeds greater than 140km/h (84mph) it is retracted back to
the intermediate position. If the road speed drops below 100km/h (62 mph), the wind
deflector is again raised.
