For those who have this option: if the panoramic roof is fully closed (both window and sun protection) what happens if you just push back the button one time? The interior sun protection slides back all the way to the end or just until opening the front passengers part of the roof?

Push gently and hold to move manually, and stop where you want it.
Push harder then release and it goes all the way open.

One thing I didn't realise till recently was that if the blind is closed, then if you raise the roof panels the blinds part slightly to leave a gap. Neat !

new-kid, that is great info. I had no idea about those two functions of the roof shade. Thanks.

Here are some photos I took last night regarding the sunroof opening. I did them in succession.

Closed


One click back-->full shade opening


2nd click back-->half glass open


3rd click back-->full glass open


From full open, it takes 3 forward clicks to get full close. Unfortunately, you have to wait for glass to stop before doing doing the next click.

Here is the glass opening after pressing the switch up with the shade open

And as mentioned above, separation of the shades after pressing the switch up with the shades closed
