WARNING

Always take care when using the panoramic sliding roof otherwise you could cause accidents or injuries.

• The panoramic sliding roof and sun blind should only be opened or closed when nobody is in their paths.

• Always take all vehicle keys with you each time you leave the vehicle.

• Never leave children or disabled people alone in the car, particularly if they have access to the vehicle key. The unmonitored use of the vehicle key can lock the vehicle, start the engine, switch on the ignition and operate the panoramic sliding roof.

• The panoramic sliding roof can still be operated for a short time after the ignition has been switched off, provided the driver door or front passenger door are not opened.

NOTICE

• To avoid damage, keep the vehicle roof free of ice and snow before opening or tilting the panorama sliding roof in winter temperatures

• The sliding panoramic roof should always be closed when you leave the vehicle or when it starts to rain. Any rain entering the vehicle with the panoramic roof open or tilted could cause considerable damage to the electrical system. Other damage to the vehicle could also follow.

Leaves and other loose items must be removed from the panoramic sliding roof guide rails using a vacuum cleaner or by hand.

If there is a fault in the panoramic sliding roof, the roll-back function will not work properly. Go to a qualified workshop.
