Sunroof* Intr oduction WARNING
If the sunroof is used negligently or without
pa y
ing due attention, it can cause serious in-
jury.
● Open or close the sunroof and the sun blind
only when no one i
s in their path of move-
ment.
● Never leave any key inside the vehicle
when exitin
g.
● Never leave a child or any other person who
may
need help in the vehicle, especially if
they have access to the vehicle key. If using
they key unattended, they could lock the ve-
hicle, start the engine, switch on the ignition
and activate the sunroof.
● After switching off, it is still possible to
open or close the s
unroof during a short
space of time provided that neither the driver
nor passenger door is opened. CAUTION
● To pr ev

ent damage, during winter tempera-
tures remove any ice or snow that might be
on the car roof before opening the sunroof or
adjusting the tilt position.
● Before leaving the vehicle or in case of rain-
fal
l, always close the sunroof. With the sun-
roof open or in a tilted position, water can en- ter the interior and can cause considerable
dam
ag

e to the electrical system. As a result,
other damage can occur in the vehicle. Note
● Le av

es and other loose objects that accu-
mulate on the sunroof rails should be regular-
ly cleaned away either by hand or with a vac-
uum.
