For the life of me I don't seem able to get the sun roof blind to open or close in one single movement. It seems to require me to keep my finger pressed on the button for the whole duration of it opening or closing.

Admittedly, I'm still getting used to the toys as I've only had the car two weeks, so I'm probably missing a trick. I have consulted the manual to no avail. Thing is, I have seen it do it in a single motion before (without the need to keep finger on).

Any clues please?

One quick prod with the finger should send the blind on its way all the way back or forwards as desired.

Hold your finger on the button and it'll move but stop when the button is released.

Many years ago, with TIBET I, I discovered it by accident when finger was poised, went over a bump, stabbed the button and off it went....!

A quick prod should open it all the way (as above).

If not I wonder if it needs 'resetting' like the electric windows would after a battery disconnection.

Try holding the 'open' button in until the blind is fully open. Press the button again.

Hold the 'close' button in until it's closed. Then press the button again.

Might be worth a try as it won't cost anything but a minute of your time.

Thanks chaps. Will give it a go.

Well, has it worked???

 

We're all waiting with baited breathe.     :sun: 

Give me chance... I've been out all day ;-). Yes, it worked thanks. It's kind of counter intuitive as it works in the opposite way electric window buttons work:-

Quick stab = fully open/close, whereas pressing for longer than half a second stops it as soon as you take your finger off.

Thanks all

Is that not how they both operate?

Not quite.

The window buttons are a two-stage affair.

First stage (partial press and hold) and you'll have to hold your finger there to keep the window moving.

Second stage (full press and release) and the window will go all the way down with no other user intervention.

This obviously assumes two stage buttons fitted. If not, there is no 'second stage'.

I find the Yeti quite logical.

Fully open = one quick press.

Anything less = hold and release when appropriate.
