Closing without pinch protection
system
In case of danger from outside or if, for example,
ice on the window prevents normal closing, pro-
ceed as follows:
1.
Pull the switch beyond the resistance point
and hold. The pinch protection system is
limited and the window opens slightly if the
closing force exceeds a certain value.
2.
Pull the switch beyond the resistance point
and hold again within approx. 4 seconds.
The window closes without the pinch pro-
tection system.
Coupe:
Glass sunroof, electric with
raise function*
The glass sunroof and sliding visor are opera-
tional whenever the ignition is switched on.
To prevent injuries, exercise care when
closing the glass sunroof and keep it in
your field of vision until it is shut.
Always take along the remote control when you
leave the vehicle; otherwise, children could, for
example, operate the roof and injure them-
selves.

Pinch protection system
If the glass sunroof encounters resistance when
closing, the closing action is interrupted and the
glass sunroof opens.
If the sliding visor encounters resistance when
closing within the last approx. 8 in/20 cm, the
closing action is interrupted and the sliding
visor opens again slightly.
Despite the pinch protection system, you
should inspect the sunroof's travel range
prior to closing it, as the safety feature might fail
to detect certain kinds of obstructions, such as
very thin objects, and the sunroof would con-
tinue closing.
