Pinch protection system
If the closing force when closing the glass sunroof exceeds a certain value, the closing movement is stopped, beginning at approximately one-third of the opening in the roof, or from the tilted position during closing.
The roof and the sliding visor open a short distance.
Danger of pinching even with pinch protection
Despite the pinch protection system, check that
the roof's closing path is clear; otherwise, the
closing action may not be interrupted in certain
extreme situations, such as when thin objects
are present.◀
Closing without the pinch protection system
For example, if there is an external danger, proceed as follows:
Press the switch forward beyond the resistance point and hold. The roof closes without the pinch protection system.
