ANTI-CRUSHING SAFETY
SYSTEM
The anti-crushing safety system fitted on
the front curtain outline is active during
horizontal closing (front edge) and ver-
tical closing of the panel (rear edge) and
it will cut in when it finds an obstacle
(e.g.: finger, hand, etc …), thus guar-
anteeing sunroof reversal for a short sec-
tion.
When an obstacle is found, sunroof
stroke is stopped immediately and its
stroke is reversed to the preset position:
❒during horizontal closing it is active
along the whole stroke of the sunroof
and when it finds an obstacle on the
front side of the pane it guarantees
a 10 cm stroke reversal;
❒during vertical closing it is active
along the whole stroke of the sunroof
and when it finds an obstacle on the
rear side of the pane it guarantees
stroke reversal.
EMERGENCY OPERATION
In a emergency or during servicing (with-
out power supply), the sunroof can be
operated manually; proceed as follows:
❒press the light notches to release the
clips and remove the front ceiling light
A-fig. 88.
❒fit the setscrew wrench into the prop-
er slot B;
❒turn the key to open or to close (ac-
cording to rotation direction) the sun-
roof.
SUNROOF INITIALISATION
PROCEDURE
After disconnecting the battery or failing
the protection fuse, the sunroof shall be
“initialised” again, proceed as follows:
❒turn selector fully leftwards (counter-
clokwise);
❒press and keep pressed selector until
sunroof locking;
❒release selector;
❒press selector again within 3 seconds,
and keep it pressed;
❒a few seconds after the sunroof will
move automatically (during this stage
keep on pressing the knob);
❒initialisation will end when the sun-
roof stops. Release selector.
