Sliding/Tilt Sunroof - BMW 525I SEDAN Owner's Manual

Sliding/tilt sunroof

46n
To prevent injuries, exercise care
when closing the sliding/tilt
sunroof and keep it in your field of
vision until it is shut.
Before leaving the vehicle, switch off
the electric sunroof mechanism by
taking out the ignition key. Do not leave
children unattended in the vehicle with
access to vehicle keys. The key could
be used to start the engine and operate
vehicle systems such as the power
sunroof, etc. Unsupervised use of these
systems can result in serious personal
injury.<
For the convenience mode via the door
lock or the remote control, refer to
page 33 or 35.

Raising – Opening – Closing
With the ignition key in position 1 or 2,
press the switch or slide it in the
desired direction until you feel resis-
tance.
When lifting, the headliner retracts
several inches.
The headliner insert can not be
closed with the sunroof in its
raised position.<
After the ignition has been switched off,
you can still operate the sliding/tilt
sunroof as long as neither of the front
doors has been opened.
*
Automatic opening and closing
Press the switch past the resistance
point and then release it.
Other automatic operations are:
> With the sunroof open, press the
switch briefly toward "Lift:" the
sunroof automatically extends to its
fully-raised position
> With the sunroof lifted, press the
switch briefly toward "Open:" the
sunroof automatically opens all the
way.
Pressing the switch again briefly stops
the motion.
Safety feature
If the sliding/tilt sunroof encounters
resistance at a point roughly past the
middle of its travel when it is closing,
the closing cycle is interrupted and the
sliding/tilt sunroof will open again
slightly.
