SUN ROOF - DESCRIPTION

1.2 8v, 1.3 Multijet, 1.4 16v

DESCRIPTION

The sun-roof provides a means of extra passenger compartment ventilation and ensures swift air exchange when necessary for improved passenger comfort.

The front part of this extensive glass roof is mobile and the rear part is fixed. An manually-operated inner blind that rolls into the roof trim ensures protection against solar radiation. The blind can only be open or closed, there are no intermediate positions.

The system is operated by a two buttons in a dedicated control panel, located near the front courtesy light, that controls a motor with two different operating modes. Specifically:

  • during the opening stage, the first time the button is pressed continuously the glass panel assumes the spoiler position; when the button is pressed again continuously, the roof panel goes into the end of travel position;
  • during the closing stage, on the other hand, the first time the button is pressed continuously, the panel goes from the panel open position to the spoiler position; the next time the button is pressed continuously the panel returns to the original position.

In both cases, if you stop pressing the buttons the roof stops moving immediately.

The sun roof control unit in built into the electric motor which activates the opening/closing of the actual roof.

On this version the roof electronic control does not include an anti-crush safety function. Therefore it is necessary to make sure before or during operation that there is no risk of the passengers being exposed to injury due directly to the roof or by objects dragged along or projected by the actual roof.

The sun roof movements using the control buttons are only permitted with the ignition ON.
