
If the blind or the Roman shade is completely closed, exposure to direct
sunlight can cause heat to accumulate between the blind/the Roman
shade and the skylight. The skylight could be damaged. For that reason,
close the blind/Roman shade only 2/3 of the way in direct sunlight. Open
the skylight slightly or move it to ventilation position.

Depending on the weather, close the skylights far enough to prevent
moisture from entering.

Do not climb on the skylights.

Before commencing the journey, close the skylights.

Before commencing the journey, check that the skylights are closed and
locked.

When leaving the vehicle, always close the skylights.

The upholstery will fade over time, if it is exposed to sunlight. If the tem-
perature within the vehicle rises rapidly as well, the colour will change at
an accelerated rate.
Therefore, we recommend closing the shades on the skylights of the
parked vehicle by 2/3 when there is strong sunlight.
6.5.1 Hinged skylight
The hinged skylight may be opened on one side only. Three inclination an-
gles and a ventilation position are available.
