Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Parts of the body could become trapped
between the roller sunblind and frame or slid-
ing sunroof during automatic opening or clos-
ing. There is a risk of injury.
When opening or closing, make sure that no
body parts are in the sweep of the roller sun-
blind.
If someone is trapped:
R
release the switch immediately or
R
press the switch in any direction during the
automatic opening/closing process
The opening/closing process is stopped.
The roller sunblinds shield the vehicle interior
from sunlight. The roller sunblinds can only be
opened and closed when the panorama sliding
sunroof is closed.
Roller sunblind reversing feature
The roller sunblinds are equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object blocks
or restricts the roller blind during the closing
process, the roller blind opens again automati-
cally. However, the automatic reversing feature
is only an aid, not a substitute for your attention
when closing the roller sunblind.
G
WARNING
The reversing function does not react in par-
ticular to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers. This means that the reversing feature
cannot prevent someone being trapped in
these situations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing the roller sunblind, make sure
that no body parts are in the sweep.
If someone is trapped:
R
release the switch immediately or
R
press the switch in any direction during the
automatic closing process
The closing process is stopped.
