Abstract:
A method for controlling a sliding and lifting sunroof device of a motor vehicle, with a control (24) for controlling a reversible drive (22), whereby a movable element (18) is movably arranged on a side of an opening of the sliding and lifting sunroof, characterized in that when the cover (12) of the sliding and lifting sunroof is lowered by the drive (22) from its open, raised position into its closed position, a wedging of an object (20) between the cover (12) of the sliding and lifting sunroof and the opening of the latter is detected by the control (24) in that the movable element (18) is deflected by the wedged object (20) from its resting position, and said deflection is detected by a sensor (34), the latter transmitting a sensor signal (36) to the control (24), and the movable element (18) is a water duct.
