If the Vario roof can no longer be closed electrically, the instrument cluster indicates a fault. • The roof can be closed manually. • Note: For vehicles with code 412, observe the WIS documents shown here. • Open both doors. • Open the emergency actuation valve to depressurize the system. • Using an Allen wrench, turn the valve through max. 2 revolutions. • Otherwise the hydraulic unit of the Vario roof will be damaged. • Using both hands, pull the trunk lid up and to the rear at the handle recess. • Position the trunk lid upright. • Remove the rear speaker on the driver side. • Fold the trim forwards to access the wiring of the power rear shelf. • Disconnect the connector. • A power cable is connected here to supply power to the electric motor of the rear shelf. • The document shown here explains how to fabricate the cable. • Only apply power to the cable until the rear shelf is upright. • Otherwise, the electric motor will be damaged. • With an assistant, lift the Vario roof out of the trunk. • Put the roof down carefully. • Fully close the roof by pressing on the opened trunk lid. • Open the trunk with the mechanical emergency key. • Open the side trim far enough that the hydraulic cylinder is accessible. • The trim has been removed here for illustration purposes. • On both sides, detach the cylinder from the tubular frame. • Carefully close the trunk lid until the lock engages. • Remove the headliner to access the locks of the Vario roof. • Initially close the latch by hand. • Press the latch into the end position using pliers. • Repeat the procedure on the roof latch on the other side. • Press the C-pillar downwards on both sides of the vehicle and close the roof. • Close the emergency valve. • Reattach the trim parts. • Close the windows electrically. • In the event of problems: use Star Diagnosis for help or use the emergency actuation function. • Open liftgate. • In the rear SAM control unit, remove fuses 39 and 41. • This prevents accidental operation of the Vario roof. • =========================================================== • instagram: • / mbownersclub • twitter: • / mb_owners
