Important safety notes
In the following section, the term "sliding

power tilt/sliding panel. G
WARNING

SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle. Never
leave children unsupervised in the vehicle.
! Only open the sliding sunroof if it is free
of snow and ice. Otherwise, malfunctions
may occur.

sliding sunroof is closed when you leave the
vehicle. The vehicle electronics can be
damaged if water enters the vehicle
interior.
i Resonance noises can occur in addition
to the usual airflow noises when the sliding
sunroof is open. They are caused by minor
pressure fluctuations in the vehicle interior.
Change the position of the sliding sunroof
or open a side window slightly to reduce or
eliminate these noises. Sliding sunroof reversing feature
The sliding sunroof is equipped with an
automatic reversing feature. If a solid object
blocks or restricts the sliding sunroof during

R to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers
R over the last
4 mm of the closing movement
R during resetting
R when closing the sliding sunroof again
