Opening to quarterlight position
If the control button is pressed again (press side B) runner S moves forwards.
The pin (2) passes from position "X" to the end "Z" of the groove in the bracket M (position a).
Pin (8), fixed to the guide, slots into the groove in the pantograph E passing from position "K" to position "J" (positions a and b).
The forward movement of the runner thus causes the pantograph device to lift up in turn causing the rear part of the roof to also lift up.
Towards the front the pin (10) is forced to enter the slot (9) causing the front end of the panel to back off a few millimeters so that it does not get in the way of the front edge of the sunroof housing frame.
The sunroof is closed (position a) by pressing side A of the button again.
Position "a" - Roof closed
Position "b" - Roof opened to the quarterlight position
