General provisions
| Item name | Spare part number | Description |
| 1 | - | Access panel |
| 2 | - | Switch |
The sunroof is controlled by a two-position rocker switch located on the center console of the sunroof. An electric motor mounted on the sunroof frame drives the sunroof glass panel to the tilted or open position. The electric motor drives two cables that move the glass panel.
The sunroof frame is bolted at eleven points on the roof panel. The frame is made by injection molding and all sunroof components are attached to it. Two aluminum rails are fixed on both sides of the frame. A sunroof motor is mounted on the frame at the back, fixed with three screws.
The sunroof glass panel is attached to the rails at the front and rear points. The tilt and shift positions are achieved by moving the panel attachment points along two fixed paths: one end of the panel along the guide, the other along with the fixture.
Electric sunroof
The sunroof electric drive includes a worm gear that transmits power to a gear located in a cast housing in the drive gearbox. The transmission includes a small gear that is mounted on the output shaft of the gearbox. The gear is engaged with twisted cables, which together with the gear form an analogue of a rack and pinion. The electric motor drives the gear, which moves the cables in the required direction.

There are two cables on each side of the gear. One end of each cable is attached to its guide. The other end of the cable is attached to the gear with a metal insert on the frame. To the guide cables are laid along the frame in tubes. When the sunroof panel is closed, the cables are inside these tubes behind the frame. The displaceable cable is fed into a two-way wiring in the frame, which protects the cable, prevents it from binding and reduces noise. The cables are made of strong spring steel and can therefore move the sunroof in both directions along the rails.
There is also a sunblind on the frame rails. This blind moves manually, regardless of the position of the glass panels. To close the sunshade, pull the handle forward on the sunshade until it clicks into place on the frame. To close the sunshade, pull the handle upwards to disengage it and leave it in the free position or swing it to the fully open position. The sunblind can only be in the fully open or fully closed position.
Drainage hoses are attached to the front and rear corners of the frame. Drainage hoses run inside the A-pillar and C-pillar and are designed to drain water that collects in the sunroof frame. At the ends of the hoses there are non-return valves that prevent the penetration of dirt and moisture into them.
Sunroof controller
The sunroof controller is located on the rear side of the frame and is connected to the electric motor on one side and to the vehicle's electrical system on the other. The controller receives signals from the vehicle's on-board equipment: signals from the LIN bus and switches, and controls the electric motor accordingly. The controller has a safety feature.
Sunroof controller connector pins
| Contact | Position | Input signal / output signal |
| 1 | "Weight" switch | - |
| 2 | Switch in position "open" | Input signal |
| 3 | Switch in position "closed" | Input signal |
| 4 | Not used | - |
| 5 | Not used | - |
| 6 | Emergency (see note below) | Input signal |
| 7 | "Weight" ECU | - |
| 8 | Accumulator battery | Input signal |
| 9 | Not used | - |
| 10 | Not used | - |
| 11 | Not used | - |
| 12 | LIN bus | Input signal |
NOTE: Pin 6 is only used in an emergency when the vehicle's LIN bus is down. This pin is not connected to the wiring harness or vehicle system connector.
NOTE: Connecting pin 6 to "mass" allows you to turn on the sunroof controller, but with the one-touch controls and anti-trap functions turned off. Sunroof calibration is only required if the battery is disconnected.
NOTE: The sunroof controller will be activated and powered on until pin 6 is disconnected. Under no circumstances should this pin be grounded for an extended period of time.
NOTE: If the motor fails, the emergency button in the headlining to operate the sunroof in manual mode will not be available.
