Hatch work
The sunroof can only be operated if the ignition switch is in position I or II. In addition, the sunroof operates for 40 seconds after the ignition is turned off, provided that the driver's or passenger's door has not been opened. One-touch sunroof control is not possible during these 40 seconds.
The electric motor has a microswitch and a Hall sensor. Two gears on the motor shaft press the microswitch every 13 revolutions of the shaft. When the microswitch is activated, the sunroof controller registers an open circuit signal. Thus, the controller, using signals from the microswitch and the Hall sensor, determines the exact position of the sunroof. The Hall sensor is also responsible for the operation of the safety function.
If the safety function is activated when closing, the sunroof panel moves back 200 mm or as far as possible. The Hall sensor, located in the electric sunroof, monitors the speed of the engine shaft and, if the speed falls below the set limit (this is a sign of seizure), the power polarity is switched and the motor shaft starts to rotate in the opposite direction. In an emergency, the safety function can be overridden by holding the switch in the closed position.
Sunroof panel lift
When the sunroof is closed, pressing the top of the rocker switch causes the sunroof motor to "raises" back of hatch. The electric motor will raise the sunroof as long as the switch is held down or until the sunroof reaches its end position. The sunroof can be stopped in any intermediate position by releasing the switch before the panel reaches the end position. Single short press (0.5 to 1 second) on the switch automatically raises the sunroof panel to its extreme position.
When a request is received to raise the hatch, the cables pull the guides back, moving the panel attachment points along the path of installing the hatch in the tilt position.
If the sunroof is up, it can be lowered by pressing the bottom of the rocker switch. The engine continues to run as long as the switch remains depressed or until the panel is fully lowered. The sunroof can be stopped in any intermediate position by releasing the switch before the panel reaches its lowest position.
Opening (shift)
When the sunroof is up, pressing the top of the rocker switch lowers the sunroof panel and retracts it. Single short press (0.5 to 1 second) on the switch automatically slides the sunroof panel to the fully open position. When the panel is moved back, a deflector is automatically raised in front of the hatch opening, designed to reduce aerodynamic noise.
Upon receipt of a request to open (shift) the cables pull the glass panel by its fasteners, sliding it back into the ceiling lining.
With the sunroof panel partially or fully open, pressing the bottom of the switch closes the sunroof panel. Single short press (0.5 to 1 second) on the switch automatically shifts the sunroof panel to the tilt end position.
If only partial opening or closing is required, a brief (less than 0.5 seconds) pushing the switch in any direction will stop the panel from moving. If it is necessary to resume movement in any direction, pressing the switch will cause the panel to move.
The sunroof system has an anti-trap function that prevents the sunroof from closing when an obstacle is detected. When an obstruction is detected, the drive will automatically move the panel back 200 mm or as far as possible. After removing the interference, you can close the panel in the usual way.
Disconnecting the battery
In the event of a disconnection of the battery, the functions "one touch" And "injury safety" will be unavailable. To start the sunroof calibration procedure, press the bottom of the switch for 20 seconds. The hatch panel performs a full cycle of movements and again "memorizes" parameters required for one-touch control and for the safety function. You can manually move the sunroof until the sunroof is calibrated.
