•	Tilt → Slide Open → Slide Close Then release the lever.

6.	Reset procedure of panorama system is finished.

Protecting Motor From Overheating

In order to protect the sunroof motor from overheating from continuous motor operation, the sunroof ECU controls the Run-time and Cool-time of the motor as follows:

1.	The sunroof ECU detects the Run- time of motor

2.	Motor can be operated continuously for the 1st run-time (120 ± 10sec.).

3.	The continuous operation of motor stops after the 1st Run-time (120 ± 10sec.).

4.	Then Motor does not operate for the 1st Cool-time (18± 2sec.).

5.	Motor operates for the 2nd Run-time (10 ± 2 sec.) at the continued motor operation after 1st Cool-time (18 ± 2sec.).

6.	The continuous operation of motor stops operating after the 2nd Run-time (10 ± 2sec.)

7.	Motor does not operate for the 2nd Cool-time (18 ±2sec.).

Motor repeats the 2nd run-time and 2nd cool-time at the continued motor operation.

–	In case that motor is not operated continuously, the run-time is increased.

–	The Run-Time of motor is initialized to "0" if the battery or fuse is reconnected after being disconnected, discharged or blown.

T1 : 120 ± 10 sec., T2 : 18 ± 2 sec.,

T3 : 10 ± 2 sec., T4 : 18 ± 2 sec.
