Notes on panorama glass roof (initialization/standardization/learning of characteristic curve) (Cooper)

Initialization comprises:

Normalization
Learning characteristic curve

The mechanical end positions are recorded and stored during standardization.

The characteristic curve is learned immediately after standardization.

When the characteristic curve is learned, the mechanical closing forces of the panorama glass roof are recorded and stored for correct operation of the crush guard.

Then carry out initialization:

if the panorama glass roof has been mechanically shifted by means of the emergency actuator
In the event of malfunctions, e.g. no one-touch mode, no opening or no comfort function possible
after disengagement of the drive unit
after repair work is carried out on the mechanism of the panorama glass roof
after exchange of the control unit

WARNING: There is no crush guard during initialization.
Ensure adequate voltage supply during initialization.
If necessary, recharge battery.

Calibration:

Panorama glass roof can be initialized in every position
Operate the switch during the entire process
Operate and hold down the switch in the first of the two possible positions towards "Close"
Open panorama glass roof closes and opens as required
Continue operating the switch in this switch position
Standardization occurs after approx. 10 sec.

Learning characteristic curve:

Continue operating and holding switch in first position towards "Close" after standardization
Panorama glass roof fully closes and opens
Release the switch when the panorama glass roof is closed

NOTE:

The entire process takes approx. 30 sec.
Learning the characteristic curve is completed when the switch is released
If the switch is released in the meantime, the entire procedure must be repeated
On successful completion of initialization, the corresponding check control messages extinguish
Carry out functional check (one-touch mode, anti-trapping protection and, if necessary, comfort function)
