Important safety notes
GWARNING
Parts of the body could become trapped
between the roller sunblind and frame or slid-
ing sunroof during automatic opening or clos-
ing. There is a risk of injury.
When opening or closing, make sure that no
body parts are in the sweep of the roller sun-
blind.
If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rduring automatic operation, push the
switch briefly in any direction
The opening or closing procedure will be stop- ped.
The roller sunblinds shield the vehicle interior
from sunlight. The front roller sunblind can only be opened and closed when the sliding sunroof
is closed.
Roller sunblind reversing feature
The roller sunblinds are equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object blocks
or restricts a roller sunblind during the closing
process, the roller sunblind opens again auto-
matically. The automatic reversing feature is
only an aid and is not a substitute for your atten-
tion when closing the roller sunblinds.
GWARNING
The reversing feature does not react in par-
ticular to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers. This means that the reversing feature
cannot prevent someone being trapped in
these situations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing the roller sunblind, make sure
that no body parts are in the sweep area.
If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rpress the switch in any direction during the
