Emergency Operation

In Emergency Mode, the sunroof only moves for 750ms at a time. The emergency function is only available when the CAS has signaled the SHD control module, "Emergency Mode Enable", via the K-CAN.

Emergency operation is active under the following conditions

  1. Coding Invalid
  2. Defective Hall-sensor
  3. Initialization incomplete

If initialization is incomplete operation is permitted based on scaling or characteristic curves. With no scaling, movement is allowed only in the direction of the scaling position. With no characteristic curve learned, movement is only is the closing direction.

Deletion of Cross-Wise Operation

Where cross-wise operation is deleted, the alarm is triggered if the DWA is armed by the remote control and disarmed by the door lock. This occurs because, even though the CAS recognizes when the lock is unlocked, it does not transfer the signal to the K-CAN. The DWA therefore remains armed and triggers the alarm when the door is opened. This function is encoded in the CAS.
