Sunroof (optional equipment) (Hyundai Santa Fe CM)

Sun protection blind

The vehicle is equipped with a retractable sunshade which, when the sunroof is closed, allows light to enter the vehicle or blocks it. To open or close the sunshade, slide it manually forward or backward (Fig. 1.73).

Warning! Never adjust the sunshade while the vehicle is moving. This may cause loss of control, which in turn may result in serious or fatal injury in a traffic accident.

Electric sunroof drive

If the vehicle is equipped with a power sunroof, the sunroof can be opened or tilted using the buttons located on the overhead console. The sunroof can only be operated when the ignition key is in the "ON" position.

Full hatch opening:





To fully open the hatch, press and hold (more than 1 sec) the "OPEN" button located on the upper console. To stop the hatch opening in the desired position, press any hatch control button (Fig. 1.74).

Incomplete opening of the hatch:

To partially open the sunroof, press the "OPEN" button located on the overhead console for less than 0.5 s.

Full hatch closure:

To completely close the sunroof, press and hold (more than 1 sec) the "CLOSE" button located on the overhead console. To stop the sunroof from closing in the desired position, press any sunroof control button.

Automatic stop of hatch closing:

If there are any objects or body parts in the hatch opening while it is closing, the hatch will stop.

The automatic sunroof closing stop function will not operate if the size of the object between the sunroof cover and the sunshade is small enough.

Before closing the hatch, make sure that there are no foreign objects in the opening.

Warning: Do not close the hatch if anyone's hands, shoulders or other body parts are between the cover and the edge of the hatch, as this may cause injury.

The hatch does not close completely.

To partially close the sunroof, press the "CLOSE" button located on the overhead console for less than 0.5 s.

Hatch tilt

Full hatch lift:

To fully raise the sunroof, press and hold (more than 1 sec) the "TILT UP" button located on the overhead console. To stop the sunroof from raising at the desired position, press any sunroof control button.

Partial hatch lift:

To partially raise the sunroof, press the "TILT UP" button located on the overhead console for less than 0.5 sec.

Lowering the hatch:

To lower the sunroof, press and hold the "CLOSE" button located on the overhead console until the sunroof is completely closed.

Note: After rain or washing your car, remove any remaining water from the sunroof before opening it.

Warning: Do not close the hatch if anyone's hands, shoulders or other body parts are between the cover and the edge of the hatch, as this may cause injury.

Warning! Never stick any body parts (head, hands) out of the sunroof. When the car is moving, the head, hands or other body parts of any of the passengers must be outside the open sunroof area. Otherwise, this may lead to injury during sudden braking or an emergency situation.

Caution: Do not open the sunroof if the outside temperature is very low or if it is covered with ice or snow.
