 page 11
The sliding/tilting sunroof only works when
switched on. After switching off, it is still pos-
sible to open or close the sliding/tilting sun-
roof during a short space of time provided
that neither the driver nor passenger door is
opened.
All operations are interrupted when the rotary
knob is actuated.
If it were not possible to close the sliding/tilt-
ing sunroof electrically, it would need to be
closed manually. It is not possible to do an
emergency close of the sliding/tilting sun- roof without removing components of the ve-
hicle. In s

uch a case, obtain professional as-
sistance.
Sliding blind
With the roof grab handle situated in the rear
part of the roof opening, it is possible to
move the sliding blind to the required posi-
tion. WARNING
If the sliding/tilting electric panoramic sun-
roof i

s used negligently or without paying
due attention, it can cause serious injury.
● The sliding/tilting sunroof should only be
opened or closed when no one i
s blocking its
path.
● After switching off, it is still possible to
open or close the s
liding/tilting sunroof dur-
ing a short space of time provided that nei-
ther the driver nor passenger door is opened. CAUTION
● To pr ev

ent damage, when there are winter
temperatures any ice or snow that there may
be on the roof of the vehicle must be removed
before opening or raising the sliding/tilting
electric panoramic sunroof.
● Before leaving the vehicle or in the case of
heavy r
ain, the sliding/tilting sunroof must
always be closed. With the sliding/tilting
sunroof open or raised, water can enter the
passenger compartment and can cause con- siderable damage to the electrical system. As
a re
s

ult, other damage can occur in the vehi-
cle.
● In the case of heavy rain, if the sliding/tilt-
ing su
nroof is open, the interior equipment of
the vehicle may get wet, destroying the seat
heating and damaging the electrical system
of the vehicle. Note
● Le av

es and other loose objects that land in
the guides of the sliding/tilting sunroof
should be removed periodically by hand or
using a vacuum cleaner.
● If the sliding/tilting sunroof does not work
correctly
, the anti-trap function will not work
either. In this case, you should take the vehi-
cle to a specialised workshop.
● The convenience position permits sufficient
ventil
ation with a level of sound produced by
low wind. Anti-trap function of the sliding/tilt-
in

y
when c

losing the sliding/tilting electric

nr

oof encounters resistance or an obstacle
when closing, it will immediately reopen.
