Panoramic roof* – operation
The laminated panoramic roof is divided into two sections. The rear glass section is fixed in place and cannot be moved but the front glass section can be slid horizontally to the open or closed positions or its rear edge can be raised and lowered to allow ventilation.

Warning
- During manual closing, if the laminated panoramic roof is obstructed, immediately open it again.
- Never open or close the laminated panoramic roof if it is obstructed in any way.
- Never allow a child to operate the laminated panoramic roof.
- Never leave a child alone in a vehicle.
- When leaving the vehicle, ensure that the ignition is in mode 0 (see Ignition modes for information about the various ignition modes) to disable the laminated panoramic roof. Never leave the remote key/PCC* in the vehicle.
- Never extend any object or body part though the open laminated panoramic roof, even if the vehicle's ignition is completely switched off.
Automatic operation
- To open the sun shade completely, pull the control as far back as possible (to the auto open position) and release it.
- To fully open the laminated panoramic roof, pull the control as far back as possible a second time (to the auto open position) and release it.
Quick open/close
The laminated panoramic roof and the sun shade can be opened/closed at the same time:
- Open - pull the control back (to the auto open position) twice in quick succession and release it.
- Close - push the control forward (to the auto close position) twice in quick succession and release it.
Manual operation
- Opening the sun shade: Pull the control back to the first stop (the manual open position) and hold it until the sun shade has opened to the position of your choice.
- Opening the rear edge of the laminated panoramic roof: Pull the control back to the first stop (the manual open position) a second time to open the rear edge of the laminated panoramic roof.
- Opening the front glass section: Pull the control back to the first stop (the manual open position) a third time and hold it until the laminated panoramic roof has opened to the position of your choice.
Perform this procedure in reverse order to close the laminated panoramic roof and/or sun shade.
For manual opening, the sun shade must first be fully open before it will be possible to open the laminated panoramic roof. When closing, the laminated panoramic roof must be fully closed before the sun shade can be closed.Note
Tilt position
- Open (raise the rear edge of the front glass section) by pressing the rear edge of the control upward.
- Close by pulling the rear edge of the control downward and holding it until the laminated panoramic roof has closed completely.
If the sun shade is completely closed, it will open approximately 2 inches (5 cm) when the laminated panoramic roof is opened to the tilt position.
Auto-stop
The laminated panoramic roof has an auto-stop feature that is triggered if the glass section of the roof or the sun shade is blocked in any way when being closed. In this case, the laminated panoramic roof or sun shade will stop and reverse automatically approximately 2 in. (5 cm) from the point at which it was blocked (or will open fully to the tilt position).
The auto-stop feature also functions when the laminated panoramic roof or sun shade is being opened.
The auto-stop feature can be overridden if the closing procedure has been interrupted (e.g., due to ice around the laminated panoramic roof) by pressing and holding the control forward/down until the roof is closed.
