General description

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The GTV is fitted with a new type of electrically-operated sunroof of the type in glass with sliding sun blind. The sliding mechanisms open the roof in two separate phases:

• the first phase allows "compass" opening which consists in raising the rear of the sunroof to allow air to flow out of the passenger compartment with restricted ventilation limits. Even if the operation button is kept pressed, the roof stops in this position.

– pressing the button again, the roof moves rearward from the "compass" position keeping to the outside of the roof.

In the opening position the sun blind is housed in the space between the roof lining and the roof.

Operation of the sunroof is controlled by a two-position switch housed on the tunnel console (Fig. 1); the movement of the sunroof ("compass" opening-complete opening and vice-versa), is caused by the profile of the cam machined on the runners and by the sliding of the runners on the guides.
