The glass in the panorama sunroof could
break in an accident. If you are not wearing a
seat belt, there is a risk that you could be
thrown through the opening in the event of the
vehicle overturning. Therefore, always wear a
seat belt to reduce the risk of injuries.

from the normal airflow noises resonance
noises may also occur. They are caused by minor pressure fluctuations in the vehicle
interior. Change the position of the sliding
sunroof or open a side window slightly to
reduce or eliminate these noises.
