How the power sunroof works
Fig. 4 6 Sect ion of th e

s w it ch pos it ion s
The roof wil l s lide open or tilt up at the rear as required . When the
ignition is on, you can slide the roof open or close it to the desired
position by turning the rotary control switch located overhead next
to the interior light. The roof is tilted open or closed by pressing or pulling the control switch at position@=> fig . 46 .
You can still close or open the sunroof for up to ten minutes af ter
you have switched off the ignition with the key remaining in the igni­
tion lock . If either doo r is opened, powered operation of the sunroof
wi ll be deactivated.
Solar roof*
The solar cells in the roof provide energy to operate the ventilation
system for the c limate control. It is activated automatically after the
vehic le is parked . Depending on solar irradiation, the interior
temperature of the vehicle is lowered in the summer, in the winter
the interior is dehumidified .
T he interior trim is permanent ly attached to the solar roof and
cannot be s lid separate ly .

Sola r prot ection w ith slidin g g lass s un ro of*
The sliding glass sun roof is equipped with an adjus table sunshade
to reduce the effects of s trong sun light. The solar protection can be
moved at the recessed hand le to open and close it. To prevent the
vehicle interior from hea ting up , you should close the solar protec ­
tion when you park your vehicle in the sun.
When the roof is
slid op en , the sunshade is opened automatica lly .
When the roof is c losed , the sunshade can b e clos ed manually.
When the roof is
tilted open , the closed sunshade is also raised at
the rear edge . But it can still be slid open or closed .
0 Note
You should always closed the sliding/tilting sun roof when you leave
your veh icle. Sudden rain can drench the interior equipment and
damage the electron ic convenience features in your vehic le .
[ i ] Tips
If you park your vehicle in the sun, we recommend that you c lose the
sunshade *.•
