Roof flap
ROOF FLAp (1/2)
Driving with the roof flap
open may be unpleasant
for passengers because
exhaust gas may enter the
passenger compartment. This use
is solely for short distances, whilst
transporting bulky objects with-
out having to open the rear doors.
In this case, close the other win -
dows and operate the ventilation
system at the half or fully open
setting, as this will help to prevent
exhaust gas from entering the pas-
senger compartment.
123
Transverse bar
When loading bulky objects, the trans-
verse bar may be moved:
– Press the handle 3;
– lift the bar all the way to the door
pillar;
– lock the bar after loading.
To open:
– Unlock the control 2 , the roof flap
lifts automatically (ensure that noth-
ing stops the flap from opening. In
this case, use the handle 1 to guide
it open);
– when the roof flap is open, it must
be locked by pushing it towards the
front of the vehicle until the control 2
locks.
Important: It is prohibited to drive with
the roof flap open and unlocked. Note:
when driving with the roof flap
open, you may hear air noises. To
reduce these, open one of the side win-
dows slightly.

As a general rule, if there is a load
on the roof, use of the sunroof is not
recommended.
Before using the sunroof, check the
objects and/or accessories (bike
racks, roof boxes, etc.) attached to
the roof bars: they should be prop -
erly arranged and secured and
should not interfere with the opera -
tion of the sunroof.
Contact your approved Dealer for
details of possible conversions.

your vehicle is the towing vehicle, not to
exceed the towing weight of your vehi-
cle. Contact an approved Dealer.
When the engine is stopped, steering and braking assistance are not

(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.

visable not to exceed 15 mph
