Opening the sliding/tilting sunroof to switch position -1-, the so called comfort position, largely reduces wind noises that can occur in switch position -2-. |
Opening/closing the sliding/tilting sunroof is carried out by actuation of the switch, i.e. pressing or pulling, or until the respective end position of the glass panel is reached. |
The sliding/tilting sunroof is equipped with a force limitation (anti-trap) mechanism for the sliding function. If the sunroof encounters an obstruction while closing, it will open automatically. |
As of week 32 1998, a new motor and rotary switch are installed. On models built from this date, the glass panel can also be tilted open and closed using the rotary switch. |
In addition, the glass panel is closed by pressing and holding the rotary switch. |
Note The motor and switch can only be identified by the new part numbers and should not be installed with older type components. |
In addition, there is an emergency closure function. If problems occur during closure, the sunroof can be forced shut by pressing the pre-selector switch, which must be in the “sunroof closed” position. |
During the emergency closure function, the force limitation mechanism is deactivated. |
The sliding/tilting sunroof drive mechanism is protected against overheating by a time limitation factor. The protective mechanism activates when the sunroof is operated continuously for approx. 2 minutes. It is functional again once a predetermined cooling down phase has elapsed. |
