Sunroof - operation and maintenance

Bodywork / Sunroof - operation and maintenance

1 To unlock the sunroof, bring the control lever down and turn it anti-clockwise. The glass sunroof will partially rise and then slide rearwards.

2 A sliding louvre is provided to decrease noise and airflow.

3 On cars fitted with a sunroof, the interior lamps are of pillar-mounted type.

4 If the sunroof must be removed, prise out the screw caps using a thin blade.

5 Extract the screws which hold the glass panel to the rails.

6 The sunroof channel water drain hoses should be kept clear. If the hoses are to be cleared of obstruction remove the trim panels at the sides of the front footwells and insert a length of curtain spring in the bottom ends of the hoses.

7 The rear drain hoses are accessible once the parcels shelf supports are removed and the trim panels unclipped.
