MAGIC SKY CONTROL can be switched
between darkened and transparent states.
i MAGIC SKY CONTROL darkens automat-
ically after a short period when you turn the key to position 0or remove the key.
Risk of electric shock G
DANGER
MAGIC SKY CONTROL operates using high
voltage. If the roof lining behind the panorama roof is damaged or removed, electrical com-
ponents will be exposed. If you touch these
components, you could get an electric shock.
There is a risk of fatal injury.
R Never remove the roof lining behind the
panorama roof.
R If the roof lining is damaged, never touch
the electrical components behind it.
R Always have work on the MAGIC SKY CON-
TROL carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
The high-voltage components of MAGIC SKY
CONTROL are protected above the roof lining.
The MAGIC SKY CONTROL voltage trans-
former is stamped with a high-voltage sym-
bol, warning you about the high voltage. The electric cables of the high-voltage section are
coloured orange.

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If the backrest is not engaged, it could fold
forwards during a braking manoeuvre or in the event of an accident, for example. The seat
backrest will then push the vehicle occupant
against the seat belt. The seat belt cannot
protect as intended and could result in addi-
tional injury. This poses an increased risk of
injury.
Before each journey, make sure that the back- rest engages fully as described. G
WARNING
The seat belt does not offer the intended level of protection if you have not moved the back-
rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-
ing or in the event of an accident, you could
slide underneath the seat belt and sustain
abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Adjust the seat properly before beginning
your journey. Always ensure that the backrest
is in an almost vertical position and that the
shoulder section of your seatbelt is routed
across the centre of your shoulder. G
WARNING
When adjusting a seat, you or another vehicle occupant could become trapped by the guiderail of the seat, for instance. There is a risk of
injury.
Make sure that no one has any part of their
body within the sweep of the seat when
adjusting it.
Folding the seat backrest forwards With the EASY-ENTRY system, the seat moves
forwards as soon as you fold the backrest
forwards. 110
