Re-teaching motor for sliding roof

It is necessary to re-teach the motor for the sliding roof in the event of emergency operation or replacement of parts on the sliding roof motor (seals, sliding-roof drive) or if the entire system is replaced. The data of limit positions and characteristics are stored and are retained even if the battery is disconnected.

Teaching motor for sliding roof 

  1. With the ignition switched on, press the Lift  button and move the motor for the sliding roof to the raised limit position.
  2. Press the Lift  button again and keep depressed. After around 10 seconds, a complete cycle takes place from the raised limit position to the positions "lower-open-close". Teaching of the characteristics has been completed after this process.
    NOTE: The Lift  button must not be released during the entire process. In the event of a restart, the motor for the sliding roof must always be moved to the limit position first.
