42 n Panorama glass sunroof *
Anti-trapping mechanism
If the panorama glass sunroof or sliding
visor encounter resistance when clos-
ing from roughly one third of the roof
opening or when closing from the
raised position, the closing action is
interrupted and the panorama glass
sunroof and sliding visor reopen a little.
Despite the anti-trapping mecha-
nism inspect the roof's travel path
prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of
obstructions, such as very thin objects,
and the roof would continue closing.
The anti-trapping mechanism for clos-
ing the panorama glass sunroof is
deactivated if the switch is pressed
beyond the resistance point and held
there. The closing action is interrupted
when you release the switch.

Following a power failure
Following interruptions in electrical
power, for instance, when the battery
is disconnected, it is possible that the
panorama glass sunroof will extend to
its tilt-up position, but fail to respond to
other commands. The system must be
initialized. BMW recommends having
this work carried out by your BMW
Sports Activity Vehicle center.
Manual operation
In the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can operate the panorama glass
sunroof manually.
