Caution!
Do not open the sun roof if a roof rack or
crossbars are fitted. Do not open the sun
roof if there is snow or ice on it: you may
damage it.
Closing
From the complete open position, push
the open/close button toward the front
of the vehicle. The roof will close
completely.
The automatic motion can be
interrupted in any position by pushing
the open/close button again.
Vent Opening
To bring the roof into vent position,
push and release the vent button.
This type of vent opening can be
activated regardless of the position of
the sunroof. When starting with the roof
in closed position, pushing the button
automatically causes its vent-opening. If
the roof is already open, the button
must be held until the roof reaches the
vent-opening position.
Pushing vent button again during
automatic movement of the roof will
stop it.
Sun Shade Movement
The sun shades are power operated.
Push the Power Shade open/close
button toward the rear of the vehicle to
open the sun shade.
Push the Power Shade open/close
button toward the front of the vehicle to
close the sun shades.
The automatic motion can be
interrupted in any position by pushing
the Power Shade on/off button again.
Pinch Protect Feature
The sunroof has an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle during the
closing movement. If an obstacle is
detected, the system intervenes and
the movement of the sunroof is
immediately reversed into opening.
Initialization Procedure
Automatic operation of the sunroof
must be initialized again in case of faulty
sunroof operation.
Proceed as follows:
1. Push the open/close button to bring
the roof into the completely closed
position.2. Turn the ignition to the STOP
position and wait at least ten seconds.
3. Turn the ignition to the AVV position.
Refer to “Ignition” in this chapter for
further information.
4. Hold the open/close button down
for at least ten seconds. You should
then hear the mechanical stop of the
roof motor.
5. Within five seconds, hold the
open/close button down. The roof will
perform a complete automatic opening
and closing cycle (to indicate that the
initialization procedure has been
successful). If this does not occur, the
procedure must be restarted from the
beginning.

The system warns the driver about the
presence of vehicles in the detection
area by lighting up, on the relevant side,
the warning light located on the door
mirror.
When the engine is started the warning
light turns on to signal the driver that
the system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any
forward gear is engaged at a speed
higher than approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) or when reverse is engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated
when the vehicle is stationary and the
PARK (P) mode active.
The detection area of the system
covers approximately a lane on both
sides of the vehicle which is around 9 ft
(3 m).This area begins from the door mirror
and extends for approximately 19 ft
(6 m) towards the rear part of the
vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the
system monitors the detection areas on
both sides of the vehicle and warns the
driver about the possible presence of
vehicles in these areas.
While driving, the system monitors the
detection area from three different input
points (side, rear and front) to check
whether a alert needs to be sent to the
driver. The system can detect the
presence of a vehicle in one of these
three areas.
Note:
The system does not alert the driver
for the presence of fixed object (e.g.
safety barriers, poles, walls, etc.).
However, in some circumstances, the
system may activate in the presence of
these objects. This is normal and does
not indicate a system malfunction.
The system does not alert the driver
about the presence of vehicles coming
from the opposite direction, in the
adjacent lanes.
Warning!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only
an aid to help detect objects in the blind
spot zones. The BSM system is not
designed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists,
or animals. Even if your vehicle is equipped
with the BSM system, always check your
vehicle’s mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and use your turn signal before
changing lanes. Failure to do so can result
in serious injury or death.
Important Notes
If a trailer is hitched to the vehicle, the
system automatically deactivates.
For the system to operate correctly, the
rear bumper area where the radar
sensors are located must stay free from
snow, ice and dirt gathered from the
road surface.
Do not cover the rear bumper area
where the radar sensors are located
with any object (e.g. adhesives, bike
rack, etc.).
If you wish to install the tow hook after
purchasing the vehicle, you need to
deactivate the system via the Connect
system. To access the function, select
the following items in sequence on the
main menu: "Settings", "Safety", and
"Blind Spot Alert".

2. Remove the tow hook from its
housing in the trunk and carefully clean
the threaded housing on the vehicle
before using it.
3. Tighten the vehicle's tow hook in
place (about 11 turns).
Note:The largest work angle of a tow
cable to fix on the tow hook must not
exceed 15°.
Warning!
Stand clear of vehicles when pulling with
tow eyes.
Do not use a chain with a tow eye.
Chains may break, causing serious injury or
death.
Do not use a tow strap with a tow eye.
Tow straps may break or become
disengaged, causing serious injury or
death.
Failure to follow proper tow eye usage
may cause components to break resulting
in serious injury or death.
Caution!
The tow eye must be used exclusively
for roadside assistance operations. Only
use the tow eye with an appropriate device
in accordance with the highway code (a
rigid bar or rope) to flat tow the vehicle for
a short distance to the nearest service
location.
Tow eyes MUST NOT be used to tow
vehicles off the road or where there are
obstacles.
In compliance with the above
conditions, towing with a tow eye must
take place with two vehicles (one towing,
the other towed) aligned as much as
possible along the same center line.
Damage to your vehicle may occur if these
guidelines are not followed.
When towing, only use a facility that can
tow vehicles with low ground clearances as
extensive damage can result by using a
standard tow truck platform.
