shade (rear window)
Press the l~ •~ I switch to extend or retract the electric
sunshade for the rear window => fig. 63 .
If you have switched the Automatic Rear Sunshade function in the
MMI on, the extended rear sunshade is retracted when reverse gear
is engaged . This improves rear vision when backing up. The
sunshade extends again as soon as reverse gear is disengaged and
vehicle speed is above about 15 km/h.
If the rear sunshade was automatically retracted in reverse gear, and
the ignition was switched off and then on again, the rear sunshade
is
not not extended again after revers e gear is disengaged and
vehic le speed exceeds 15 km/h. The rear sunshade must be
extended again using the
r.iil switch in the cockpit .
After the sun shade for the rear window has reached either of its end
positions, it turns off automatically . Br iefly press the switch a
second time to reverse the movement of the sun shade before it
reaches its end position. If the ignition is turned off while the shade
is still moving, the shade will continue until it reaches the end posi ­
tion before turning off.
[ i ] Tips
• If the sun shade is operated repeatedly within a short time, the
built-in overload protection circuit may be tripped . If this occurs,
you will have to wait briefly before you can operate the shade again.
• Because of the decrease in the flexibility of the shade material a t
temperatures below freezing, the electrica l circuit which operates
the shade shuts off when the temperature in the vehicle falls below
23 °F
(- 5 °C). The shade cannot be operated until the passenger
compartment warms up above this temperature. •
