Operating the roller sunblind for the
sliding sunroof
General notes
The roller sunblind shields the vehicle interior
from sunlight. The roller sunblind can only be
opened and closed when the sliding sunroof
is closed.
G WARNING
When opening or closing the roller sunblind
parts of the body could be trapped between
the roller sunblind and the frame or sliding
sunroof. There is a risk of injury.
When opening or closing make sure that no
parts of the body are in the sweep of the roller
sunblind.
If someone is trapped:
R
release the switch immediately or
R
press the switch in any direction during the
automatic opening/closing process
The opening/closing process is stopped.
Roller sunblind reversing feature
The roller sunblind is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If an object blocks or
restricts the roller sunblind during the closing
process, the roller sunblind opens again auto-
matically. The automatic reversing feature is
however only an aid and is no substitute for
your attention when closing the roller sun-
blind.
