Opening and closing automatically
Press the switch beyond the resistance point.
The following movements are also automatic:
> When the sunroof is open, press the switch
in the raising direction: the sunroof is raised
all the way.
> When the sunroof is raised, press the
switch in the opening direction: the sunroof
is opened all the way.
Pressing the switch again stops the motion.
Pinch protection system
If the glass sunroof encounters resistance when
closing from roughly the center of the roof
opening or when closing from the raised posi-
tion, the closing action is interrupted and the
glass sunroof reopens a short way.
Despite the pinch protection system,
inspect the sunroof's travel path prior to
closing it, as the safety system might fail to
detect certain kinds of obstructions, such as
very thin objects, and the sunroof would con-
tinue closing.<
Closing without pinch protection
system
In case of danger from outside, press the switch
beyond the resistance point and hold. The roof
closes without the pinch protection system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power loss, the sunroof may only
respond to the raise command. The system
must be initialized. BMW recommends having
this work done by your BMW center.
