The operator can control the position of the glass panel by pressing and holding the open button until the glass panel has reached the desired position. Neither the close nor vent buttons have 'express' functionary. These buttons must be held until the glass panel has reached the desired position. The sunroof will also operate for up to fifteen minutes after the ignition key is turned off for customer comfort and convenience while parking.
