WARNING
At high speeds the raised sliding sunroof auto- matically lowers slightly at the rear. This could
trap you or other persons. There is a risk of
injury. Make sure that nobody reaches into
the sweep of the sliding sunroof whilst the
vehicle is in motion.
If somebody becomes trapped, immediately
pull back the sliding sunroof switch. The slid- ing sunroof lifts during opening.
! Only open the panorama sliding sunroof if
it is free of snow and ice. Otherwise, mal-
functions may occur.
Do not allow anything to protrude from the
sliding sunroof. Otherwise, the seals could
be damaged.
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. Reversing function of the sliding sun-
roof
In the following section, the term "sliding sun- roof" refers to the panorama sliding sunroof.
The sliding sunroof is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If an object blocks or restricts the sliding sunroof during the closing process, the sliding sunroof opens again
automatically. The automatic reversing fea-
ture is, however, only an aid and is no substi-
tute for your attention when closing the slid-
ing roof. G
WARNING
The reversing feature does not react:
R to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small fin-
gers
R over the last 4 mm of the closing movement
R while resetting This means that the reversing feature cannot
prevent someone being trapped in these sit-
uations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing make sure that no body parts
are in the closing area.
