Unlocking and locking54
The sliding/tilting roof is operated by means of the control dial ⇒
fig. 32
and only functions when the ignition is switched on.
The
control dial has a
number of fixed positions.
After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the
sliding/tilting roof for a further 10 minutes. It is no longer possible to
operate the sliding/tilting roof after opening or closing one of the front
doors, however.
Note
• If the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, it is possible
that the sliding/tilting roof does not close fully. Here you have to set the
control dial to the switch position and press it forward for about 10
seconds.
• It is necessary after each emergency operation (using crank handle)
to move the sliding/tilting roof into the basic position. Here you have to set
the control dial to the switch position and press it forward for about 10
seconds.
