Spoiler, Sliding blind, Draining

The opening of the panel to the hidden position allows the spoiler to lift up (1) thus deviating the flow of air. The spoiler is attached to the body by two brackets fitted with flexible arms (6). When the panel is closed or open in the quarterlight position it presses on the flexible arms holding the spoiler in the lowered position. When the roof panel is opened to the hidden position the roof panel frees the two flexible arms which thus raise the spoiler. Water which infiltrates between the seal of the glass is drained off by a channel in three fixed sides of the frame and on the mobile hoop. The channels are connected by a hose (3) and suitable connections (2) located in the four corners of the frame. The hoses drain the water off through outlets in the engine compartment and in the luggage compartment.

The inner sun blind (4) is connected to the frame by four spring attachments (5). These attachments also act as runners sliding in the guides on the frame. When the roof panel is closed the blind can be operated manually. When the sunroof is opened in the hidden position the blind is towed by the panel until, when the roof is fully open, it is completely hidden inside the space between the inner and outer roof panels. When the sunroof is closed the blind partially protrudes from the space between the two roof panels so that it can then be moved manually.
