cause damage and injuries.  
Always ensure that no body parts or objects are within the opening range of the power sunroof.

Opening or tilting the power sunroof when there is precipitation, particularly snow and ice, may cause damage to the  
vehicle interior and the electrical system.  
Remove snow and ice from the vehicle roof before using the power sunroof in winter temperatures.  
Always close the power sunroof before leaving the vehicle and when there is precipitation.  
NOTICE  
If you use a power sunroof with a roof rack mounted, the power sunroof may be damaged.  
Keep the power sunroof closed when using a roof rack.  
Remove leaves and other loose objects from the sunroof guide rails regularly, either by hand or with a vacuum cleaner.

If it is not possible to close the sunroof using the power controls, the sunroof must be closed manually. Some vehicle  
components must be removed in order to close the sunroof manually. Contact a suitably qualified professional.
