90•Never leave children or disabled persons in the vehicle, particularly if
they have access to the keys. Unsupervised use of a key could mean that
the engine is started or that electrical equipment is used (e.g. electric
tilting sunroof) with a risk of accident. The doors can be locked using the
remote control key. This could make the aid difficult in an emergency situ-
ation.•The tilting sunroof continues to function until one of the front doors is
opened and the key removed from the ignition.•Ensure that no object and/or end is between the glass and the sunroof
when the one-touch opening/closing function is reset.
Convenience closing* Using the door lock
– Hold the key in the door lock of the driver door in the locking position until the tilting sunroof is closed.

Using the remote control
– Push the lock button on the remote control for about 3 seconds. The tilting sunroof closes.
– Press the unlock button to interrupt the function.
Roll-back function of the panorama/ tilting sunroof*The panorama/ tilting sunroof has a roll-back function which prevents larger
objects getting trapped when the roof is closed. The roll-back function does
not prevent fingers getting pinched against the roof opening. The tilting
sunroof stops and opens again immediately if it is obstructed when closing.Operation in case of breakdown
In case of a breakdown, the sunroof may be closed manually.– Remove the plastic cover by inserting a screwdriver into the rear section.
– Insert an Allen key (4 mm) into the opening as far as possible and close the sunroof.

Practical Tips
Technical Specifications
– Close the doors.
– Push the headlight lever to the main beam position
.
– Open the driver door.
In vehicles with start-stop and/or automatic headlight system
As soon as the driver door is opened, the system will switch on the dipped
lights for 30 seconds. If the door is closed during this 30-second period, the
dipped lights will stay on (from this moment) for 15 seconds.
For all other vehicles
You have 2 minutes from the moment the key is taken out of the ignition
switch to when the lights flash; after this, the Coming home function will not
activate. To activate it again, repeat the operation.
When the system is activated, dipped beam headlights remain on for 30
seconds after closing the door. If the door is open for more than 3 minutes,
the system will not remain active after the 3 mins., which means that the
dipped lights will not light up.
Note
•If the vehicle is often used during the night for short trips and the Coming
home function is used, the battery will considerably discharge. To avoid this,
make longer journeys whenever possible.•Observe all relevant legal requirements when using the signalling and
lighting systems described here.
Heated rear window
=
The heated rear window only works when the engine is running. When it is
switched on, a lamp lights up on the switch.
After approx. 8 minutes, the heating device of the rear window switches off
automatically.
For the sake of the environment
The heated rear window should be disconnected as soon as the glass is
demisted. By saving electrical power you can also save fuel.
Note
To avoid possible damage to the battery, an automatic temporary disconnec-
tion of this function is possible, coming back on when normal operating
conditions are re-established.
