Electric sliding/tilting roof*
Description
The sliding/tilting roof is operated by means of the control dial ⇒ fig. 31 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.
