movement and reverts it by a few
centimetres, depending on its position.
The anti-crush safety function is
activated both during the manual and
the automatic operation of the window.

WARNING
21)Incorrect use of the electric windows
may be dangerous. Before and during their
operation, ensure that any passengers
are not at risk from the moving glass either
by personal objects getting caught in the
mechanism or by being hit by it directly.
When leaving the vehicle (equipped with
mechanical key with remote control),
always remove the key from the ignition
device to prevent accidental operation of
the electric windows from being a hazard
for those still on board.

ANTI-PINCH DEVICE
The sun roof and the electric blind are
equipped with an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle whilst the roof
is closing: if this happens, the system
intervenes and the movement of the
glass is immediately reversed.
EMERGENCY OPERATION
If the control buttons fail to operate, the
sun blind and the sun roof can be
moved manually, proceeding as
described below:
❒Sun blind movement: remove
protective cap A fig. 34 on the internal
trim;

movement) and turn it clockwise to
open the roof (or the blind) or
anticlockwise to close the roof (or the
blind).
INITIALISATION
PROCEDURE
Following an automatic movement
malfunction while opening/closing or
after an emergency manoeuvre (see
description in the previous paragraph),
the automatic operation of the sun
roof must be initialised again.
Proceed as follows:
❒move the roof to fully closed position;
❒move the ignition device to STOP
and keep it there for 10 seconds;
❒move the ignition device to MAR;
❒press button A in closing position;
❒press the button for at least 10
seconds, then you should hear the
mechanical stop of the roof motor;

opening and closing cycle. Otherwise,
repeat the operations starting from
the beginning;❒hold down button A until the roof is
completely closed: the initialisation
procedure has ended.
WARNING
22)When leaving the vehicle (equipped
with mechanical key with a remote control),
always remove the key from the ignition
device to avoid the risk of injury to those
still inside the vehicle due to accidental
operation of the sun roof. Improper use of
the roof can be dangerous. Before and
during operation, always check that
nobody is at risk of being injured by the
moving sun roof or by objects getting
caught or hit by it.

by a dedicated symbol on the bottom
of the panels themselves.
IMPORTANT The panels can withstand
any snow that may deposit on them.
In any case, it is advisable to remove
excessive snow.
FRONT PANEL ELECTRIC
