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 sunblind shields the vehicle interior
from sunlight. The roller sunblind can only be
opened and closed when the panorama sliding
sunroof is closed.
Roller sunblind reversing feature
The roller sunblind is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If an object blocks or
restricts the roller sunblind during the closing
process, the roller sunblind opens again auto-
matically. The automatic reversing feature is,
however, only an aid and is no substitute for your
attention when closing the roller sunblind.
G
WARNING
The reversing feature does not react:
R
to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small fin-
gers
R
when closing the roller sunblind again man-
ually immediately after automatic reversing
This means that the reversing feature cannot
prevent someone being trapped in these sit-
uations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing the roller sunblind, make sure
that no body parts are in the sweep.
