Reinitialisation  
Following reconnection of the battery or in the  
event of a fault or jerky movement of the sunroof  
or blind, reinitialisation is required.

sunroof or blind and that the seals are clean.

and blind.

Operation of buttons  
► Pressing a button beyond its point of  
resistance directly opens or closes the sunroof  
fully.  
► Pressing the button again stops the current  
movement.  
► Press and hold the front part of button B, until  
the sunroof and blind move slightly, then hold for  
a further 1 second before releasing.  
► Wait 2 seconds and then press and hold the  
front part of button B. The blind and the sunroof  
will open and close, one after the other. When  
both are completely closed again, hold for a  
further 2 seconds and release.  
► When holding a button (without going  
beyond the point of resistance), the movement  
of the sunroof or blind stops when this button is  
released.  
► When the sunroof is closed: pressing once  
without passing the point of resistance moves it  
to a partially open position.  
► When the sunroof is partially open: pressing  
once without passing the point of resistance  
opens or closes it fully.  
If there is an operating fault, restart the  
whole procedure.  
The roof and windows, then the blind,  
can be closed by holding down the door  
locking control. The operation stops as soon  
as the locking control is released.  
Closing of the blind is limited by the  
position of the sunroof: the blind cannot  
go further than the front of the mobile glass.  
During simultaneous movements of the  
sunroof and blind, the blind automatically  
stops or resumes movement depending on  
the position of the sunroof.
