Glass sun roof
The sun roof is operated by the electrical control A.
An action to the fi rst notch of the control starts a movement which stops as soon as you release the control.
An action to the second notch of the control opens or closes the sun roof fully. A further action stops the movement.
ANTI-PINCH
An anti-pinch device is present to stop the sun roof from sliding shut. If it meets an obstacle it slides in the opposite direction.
After a battery disconnection or if there has been a malfunction, you have to re-initialise the anti-pinch function.
To do that, move the control A to the second notch to make the sun roof open fully, then keep the control A pressed for at least 1 seconds.
