To open, firmly pull the switch backward. To stop the panoramic sunroof glass midway, briefly touch the switch. Hold the switch backward without releasing until reaching the desired position. The sunshade can be opened or closed via the functional button area on the front roof. Press the corresponding operation button to complete the switch.
Opening the sunroof on the BMW 530 is quite simple, and I do it frequently myself. Usually, from the driver's seat, if you look up, you'll see a button or knob with an icon on the roof. After starting the vehicle, rotate it: turning it clockwise once will slightly tilt the sunroof open for ventilation; if you continue turning to a certain position, it will slide open completely. Within a few seconds of operation, the sunroof starts moving smoothly. I especially like the panoramic sunroof version—it operates similarly, but when opened wider, it might slightly block the rearview mirror, requiring some adjustment. On the highway, I usually keep it in the tilt mode to avoid too much wind coming in, which feels both safe and comfortable. Remember to check for any debris blocking the sunroof when parking and clean the tracks regularly to prevent rust.
In my experience, opening the sunroof of the 530 is as simple as pressing the button overhead, which I often use when taking my family out for a drive. Just locate the small switch area above the steering wheel, and you'll find the button to control the sunroof. A light press makes the sunroof tilt up, and another press slides it fully open. The operation is super quick and easy, even kids can learn it effortlessly. I also remind everyone that it's best to drive at low speeds when opening the sunroof to avoid strong winds distracting your attention; and remember to close it before it rains, as the waterproofing works quite well. The sunroof design of this car is sturdy, effortless to open, and aesthetically pleasing.
