MODEL
163 with CODE (414a) Electric glass sliding/pop-up roof

Function prerequisites

D
Voltage not too low or too high

D
Switch-on conditions for convenience control fulfilled

D
Sliding/pop-up roof synchronized

Function

When
switch (SHD, S13/2)
is actuated continuously, circuit 30 is

switched through to the
sliding/pop-up roof (M12)
and the pop-up

roof opens.

The function "Open pop-up roof" is executed as long as

D
switch (SHD, S13/2)
is actuated and

D
the pop-up roof has not yet reached the end position and

D
lock-up is not recognized.


If the sliding/pop-up roof is desynchronized, it moves only in the pop-

up roof direction each time the
switch (SHD, S13/2)
is actuated. This
means that it is possible to move to the zero
position for synchronizing. After successful

synchronization
, the

sliding/pop-up roof can be controlled again without limitation.

Vehicles
up to 11.99:

The power for the
sliding/pop-up roof (M12)
is supplied via a

fuse directly to c. 30.

The power for the
switch (SR, S13/2)
is supplied via the

convenience relay (F1k14)
, which is actuated by the all-

activity module (AAM, N10).

Vehicles
as of 12.99:

The power for the
sliding/pop-up roof (M12)
is supplied via a

fuse directly to c. 30. The power for the
switch (SHD, S13/2) is

supplied via a lead to the
extended-activity module (EAM,

N10/1) , this power is switched through only when the switch-on

conditions for the convenience control are fulfilled and the EAM

is coded accordingly.
