7.6.1 Skylight with snap latch (variant 1)
Depending on the model, a skylight with forced ventilation (Fig. 42,1) is built in
the toilet compartment.
The skylight can be pushed upwards either from one side or from both sides.
Opening:
Pull on the handle (Fig. 43,2).
Fold insect screen (Fig. 43,1) downward.
Push the spring-loaded latch (Fig. 44,2) towards the inside of the skylight.
At the same time use the handle (Fig. 44,1) to press the skylight upwards.
Swing insect screen upwards (Fig. 43,1) until it latches in place.
If the blind or the Roman shade is completely closed, exposure to direct
sunlight can cause heat to accumulate between the blind/the Roman shade
and the skylight. The skylight could be damaged. For that reason, close the
blind/Roman shade only 2/3 of the way in direct sunlight. Open the skylight
slightly or move it to ventilation position.
Depending on the weather, close the skylights far enough to prevent mois-
ture from entering.
Do not climb on the skylights.
Before commencing the journey, close the skylights.
Before commencing the journey, check that the skylights are closed and
locked.
Before commencing the journey, open the blinds or Roman shades.
Apply talc to the rubber seals of the skylights at least once a year.
When leaving the vehicle, always close the skylights.
