ELECTRIC SUN ROOF(for versions/markets, where provided)
The sun roof comprises two glass panels; the front one is mobile and
the rear one fixed. These feature two sun blinds (front and rear) that
can be moved manually.
With the roof closed, the blinds can be placed in any position.OPERATIONThe sun roof can be operated only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The controls A and B fig. 63 on the trim next to the front courtesy light
operate the sun roof opening/closing functions.
Roof opening
Press and hold down button A fig. 63. The front glass panel will move
into the spoiler position. Press button A again and keep it pressed
for more than half a second to automatically move the sun roof to an
intermediate position (“Comfort” position).If button A is pressed again for more than half a second, the roof will
automatically continue until it reaches end of travel position. The front
glass panel can be stopped in an intermediate position by pressing
button A again.
Do not open the sunroof if there is snow or ice on it: you
may damage it.When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from
the ignition to avoid the risk of injury to those still
inside the car due to accidental operation of the
sunroof. Improper use of the roof can be dangerous. Before
operation, always check that no-one is at risk of being injured by
the moving sun roof or by objects getting caught and dragged
by it.
Closing the sun roof
With the roof in the fully open position, press button B fig. 63 and, if
the button is operated for more than half a second, the front roof glass
will automatically assume the intermediate position (comfort position).
If the button is operated again for about half a second the roof will
assume the spoiler position. Lastly, if closing button B is pressed again,
the roof will move to completely closed position.

Anti-crush safety device
The car is equipped with an anti-crush function for the raising of the
front and rear windows.
This safety system detects the presence of an obstacle during the
window closing travel and intervenes by stopping and reversing the
window travel, depending on its position. This device is also useful
if the windows are activated accidentally by children on board the car.
The anti-crush safety function is active both during the manual and
the automatic operation of the window. When the anti-crush system is
activated, the window travel is immediately interrupted and then
reversed. The window cannot be operated in any way during this time.
IMPORTANT If the anti-crush protection intervenes 5 consecutive times
within a minute or is faulty, the automatic closing operation of the
window is inhibited, only allowing it in steps of half a second with the
button released for the subsequent manoeuvre.
In order to restore the correct operation of the system, the relevant
window must be lowered.
IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the electric
windows remain active for about 3 minutes and are deactivated when
a door is opened.
IMPORTANT With the anti-crush system, when the
button on the
remote control is pressed for longer than 2 seconds the windows will
open, whilst if the
button is pressed for longer than 2 seconds
the windows will close.
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC standard concerning
the safety of passengers leaning out of the passenger
compartment.Incorrect use of the electric windows may be
dangerous. Before and during operation, always check
that no passenger is at risk of being injured directly
by the moving window or by objects getting caught in or
dragged by the window. When leaving the car, always remove
the key from the ignition to prevent accidental operation of the
electric windows from being a hazard for those still on board.
Electric window system initialisation
The system must be re-initialised after disconnecting the battery or if
the relevant protection fuse is blown.
Initialisation procedure:
❒fully close the window to initialise with manual operation;
❒after the window has reached the upper end of travel, hold down
the closing control for at least 1 second.
For versions/markets where provided, after a break in power supply
for the control units (battery replaced or disconnected or protective
fuses for the electric window control units replaced), the automatic
operation of the windows must be restored.
