ABSTRACT:
A vehicle includes a sun-roof having a roof aperture closable by a hatch, wherein the hatch is movable by means of a power operated device between a canted position and a closed position and, in the closed position, is selectively lockable or unlockable. In the unlocked position of the device, the hatch can be removed.
In order to enhance comfort in operating the device and in order to securely hold the hatch in position in all operating conditions, an electric motor cooperating with transmitting elements is provided for operating the device, this motor being actuatable by means of a manually operable switch and, in dependence on the ignition lock position, by position switches, a hatch sensor switch, and by the vehicle speed.
