The driver side of the back (smaller) part of the sunroof doesn't close. It's in the vent position. Reading previous comments, I'd need to manually push "sliders" to close the sunroof. How do I do that?

First, the panoramic sunroofs are quite fragile. The owners manual should have the information for "emergency" closure. There is a procedure and I will be back straightaway with your request after a bit of research
