Fig. 56 Emergency closing handle

The sliding/tilting roof has a roll-back function which prevents larger objects getting trapped when the roof is closed. The roll-back function does not prevent fingers getting pinched against the roof opening. The sliding/tilting sunroof stops and opens again immediately if it is obstructed when closing. If the sliding/tilting roof has been opened again by the roll-back function, it can be closed only by pressing the rotary button at the front in position ⇒ fig. 55 until the sliding/tilting
roof has closed fully. Please note that the sunroof will now close without the roll-back function.

Operation in the event of a breakdown

In the event of a breakdown, the sunroof may be closed manually.

• Remove the plastic cover by inserting a screwdriver in the rear section.

• Remove the lever from the cover fastening, insert it in the opening as far as possible (pushing against the spring) and close the sliding roof.

• Fit the lever back into position.
