Press the safety switch when children
ride in the rear; otherwise, unsupervised
closing of the windows could lead to injuries.<
In order to deactivate the function again,
you must insert the remote control into
the ignition lock or, with Comfort Access, you

Glass sunroof, electric*
To prevent bodily injuries, watch the
glass sunroof as it closes.
Always take along the remote control when you
leave the vehicle; otherwise, children could, for
example, operate the roof and injure them-
selves.<
Raising
Press the switch.
The closed glass sunroof is raised and the slid-
ing visor opens slightly.
Do not use force to close the sliding visor
when the sunroof is in its raised position,
as this could damage the mechanism.<
Opening, closing
>Slide switch back to the resistance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor con-
tinue to open together for as long as you
maintain pressure on the switch.
>Press the switch back briefly past the resis-
tance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor open
automatically. Pressing the switch again
briefly stops the operation.Close the glass sunroof in the same way by slid-
ing the switch toward the front. The sliding visor
remains open and can be closed by hand.
For convenience operation using the remote
key or the door lock, refer to page32 or34.
Automatic opening and closing
Press the switch briefly beyond the resistance
point.
The following movements are also automated:
>Press the switch when the roof is open: the
sunroof is completely raised.
>With the sunroof raised, press the switch
briefly in the opening direction: the sunroof
is opened completely.
Pressing the switch again briefly stops the
operation.
Pinch protection system
If the glass sunroof meets with resistance dur-
ing closing after approximately the middle of the
roof opening or when closing from the raised
position, then the closing operation is inter-
rupted and the glass sunroof opens again
somewhat.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, inspect the sunroof's travel
path prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the sunroof
would continue closing.<
Closing without the pinch protection
system
If there is danger outside, push the switch
beyond the resistance point and hold it there.
The roof closes without the pinch protection
system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power supply interruption, it may only
be possible to raise the sunroof. If this has
occurred, have the system reinitialized. BMW
recommends having this work carried out by
your BMW center.
