SOLAR CELLS
The upper part of the sunroof
incorporates 21 solar cells that pro-
duce a maximum power of 24 W to
feed the climate control system fan,
when the car is parked with the sun-
roof closed or in pivoting position.
Fan actuation is automatic and air
distribution corresponds to the latest
setting made before switching the
car off.
This function is useful especially on
summer days, since it greatly
reduces the temperature inside the
passenger compartment as well as
the duration of the cooling cycle
after car start-up, thus avoiding the
accumulation of warm air in the air-
conditioning unit lines.
In winter, the ventilation function
reduces dampness inside the passen-
ger compartment.

4) Insert the Allen screw wrench D
into the hexagonal seat of the sun-
roof starter motor, then turn it:

opening operation, put the ceiling
light back to its place by fitting in
the front clamps first and then fixing
the rear screws.

ceiling light, check that the electric
cables are positioned correctly.
