The sliding sunroof is equipped with an automatic reversing feature. If an object blocks or restricts the sliding sunroof during the closing process, the sliding sunroof opens again automatically.

WARNING

The reversing feature does not react: to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small fingers
over the last 4 mm of the closing movement during resetting when closing the sliding sunroof again manually immediately after automatic reversing

Only open the sliding sunroof if it is free of snow and ice. Otherwise, malfunctions may occur.

Do not allow anything to protrude from the sliding sunroof. Otherwise, the seals could be damaged.

Resonance noises can occur in addition to the usual airflow noises when the sliding sunroof is open. They are caused by minor pressure fluctuations in the vehicle interior.

Change the position of the sliding sunroof or open a side window. The noise will be reduced or eliminated.
