Sunscreen

The sunroof features a manual, sliding interior sunscreen. The sunscreen slides back automatically when the sunroof is opened. Grip the handle and slide the sunscreen forward to close it.

Pinch protection

The sunroof's pinch protection function is activated if it is blocked by an object while closing. In the event of blocking, the sunroof stops and is then opened automatically to approx. 50 mm from the blocked position (or to full ventilation position). The pinch protection is also active when the sunroof is opened.

If the pinch protection has deployed then it is still possible to operate the sunroof once more in the same direction without pinch protection, if this is done within 10 seconds after pinch protection deployment. It is therefore possible to override the pinch protection when closing has been interrupted e.g. if ice has formed around the sunroof, by continually pressing the control forward/downward until the sunroof is closed.
