Closing the sunroof manually
The sunroof can be closed by hand if the electrical system
should fail to operate.

kit) at the rear of the glass cover on the interior light ⇒fig. 81 .
– Carefully lever off the glass cover.
–Take the crank handle from its moun ting on the inside of the fuse
box cover ⇒page 247.
– Insert the crank handle all the way into the hexagonal socket ⇒ fig. 82 .
– Hold the crank handle in position and turn it to close the sun roof.
– Reinstall the glass cover: insert the plastic lugs first and then press the cover upwards.

NoteYou can use the screwdriver handle to make it easier to turn the crank. Detach
the handle from the screwdriver and then fit the handle onto the crank.

FusesChanging fuses
If a fuse has blown, it must be replaced.
– Switch off the ignition and its failed electrical component.
– Remove the fuse cover using a screwdriver ⇒fig. 185 .
– Identify the fuse for the failed component ⇒page 248, “Fuse
assignment”.
– Take the plastic clip from inside the fuse cover, fit it onto the
blown fuse, and pull the fuse out.
– Replace the blown fuse (which will have a melted metal strip) with a new fuse of the same amp rating.
–Fit the fuse cover back on.The individual electrical circuits are pr otected by fuses. The fuses are located
behind a cover at the left-hand end of the instrument panel.
Two spare fuses and a sticker identifying the fuses are provided on the inside
of the fuse cover. There is also a crank handle for operating the sun roof* by
hand (if the electrical system fails).
Caution
Never “repair” damaged fuses and never replace them with fuses with a
higher rating. Failure to comply could result in fire. It could also cause
damage to other parts of the electrical system.
Note
If a newly replaced fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system
must be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
