Sunroof

Sunroof tilt linked to vehicle speed

~1min read

Performance

To reduce aerodynamic noise, the sunroof tilt is automatically reduced when the vehicle speed is greater than 80 km/h

Conditions

If the sunroof is tilted to a position greater than the minimum tilt position

AND IF the vehicle speed is greater than 80 km/h

Note: The sunroof automatically returns to its initial tilt position when the speed drops below the threshold of 5 km/h.

Operation

STEP

DESCRIPTION

1 The BSI sends the vehicle speed information via VAN CAR 2.
2 The sunroof control module acquires the vehicle speed information.
3 The sunroof control unit compares the vehicle speed with the programmed threshold value
4 If the vehicle speed is above the programmed threshold, the sunroof opens slightly to the minimum vent position.

Deactivation

A subsequent command overriding the speed-linked vent control, by pressing the sunroof switch, remains possible. A subsequent command has two possible consequences depending on the aftersales coding performed:

  • the speed-linked vent function is disabled until the next vehicle ignition-off,
  • The speed-linked vent function remains active. However, only closing and sliding of the sunroof are possible.
