Sliding Roof - Mercedes-Benz 212 Sedan E-Class Service Manual

Sliding roof

Tilting / sliding roof, with code (414)
The optionally available electric tilting / sliding roof is
equipped with anti-pinch protection and is available
only in glass.
As before, the tilting / sliding roof is opened or closed
using the switch in the overhead control panel.
The "automatic operation" control function is new. The
switch is pressed in the "Open" direction beyond an
actuation point and released. This causes the tilting /
sliding roof to move to the most recently set position
before it was closed. If a different position is required,
the switch must be pressed in the desired direction
again.
If the tilting / sliding roof is open and the switch is
pressed beyond the actuation point in the "Close"
direction, the roof is closed automatically. If the
tilting / sliding roof is obstructed while closing, the
sequence is aborted by the excess force limiter func-
tion and the glass panel is reversed a short distance.
This prevents fingers from being accidentally trapped
in the closing roof.

Panoramic sliding sunroof, with code (413)
A further item of special equipment is an externally
operating panoramic sliding sunroof. The distin-
guishing feature is the continuous glass surface
extending from the windshield to the C-pillar with a
trim strip on each side that blends with the all-glass
look.
The outer skin of the panoramic sliding sunroof
comprises three separate elements made of safety
glass:
• A fixed glass roof panel at the front
• A moving glass roof section in the middle
• A fixed glass roof section at the rear
The entire module is based on a steel frame that acts
as an assembly carrier, which is lowered onto and
bonded with the roof frame of the bodyshell after the
bodyshell has been painted.
The control logic of the panoramic sliding sunroof is
identical to that of the tilting / sliding roof, including
the anti-pinch protection function.
For protection against sunlight the glass areas can be
covered on the inside with two electrically powered
roller blinds. The blinds are located in the center bar of
the modular roof and also feature an anti-pinch
protection function.
