Raising
Press the switch.

Opening, closing
Sliding visor
You can move the sliding visor independently 
with the sunroof closed or raised.
>

point.
The sliding visor opens as long as you keep 
the switch in this position.
>
Briefly press the switch back beyond the 
resistance point.
The sliding visor will open automatically. 
Briefly pressing the switch stops the 
motion.
You can close the sliding visor in a similar man-
ner by sliding the switch forwards.

tion at the door lock or with the remote control,

Opening and closing sunroof and 
sliding visor together
Briefly press the switch beyond the resistance 
point twice consecutively.
Briefly pressing the switch stops the motion.
Comfort mode
>
Press the switch twice with the sunroof 
open:
The sunroof is raised.
>
When the sunroof is raised, briefly press the 
switch twice in the opening direction:
The sunroof is opened all the way.
Comfort position
In the comfort position, the sunroof is not com-
pletely open; this reduces wind noise in the 
passenger compartment.
Each time the panorama glass sunroof is com-
pletely opened or closed, it stops in the comfort 
position. If desired, continue the motion follow-
ing this with the switch.
After switching off ignition
You can still operate the roof for approx. 
1 minute, as long as no door has been opened.
Pinch protection system
If the panorama glass sunroof or sliding visor 
encounter resistance when closing from 
roughly one third of the sunroof opening or 
when closing from the raised position, the clos-
ing action is interrupted and the panorama 
glass sunroof and sliding visor reopen a little.
Despite the pinch protection system, 
inspect the sunroof's travel path prior to 
closing it, as the safety system might fail to 
detect certain kinds of obstructions, such as 
very thin objects, and the sunroof would con-
tinue closing.
