I've driven Volkswagen cars for many years, and the sunroof switch design of the Lavida is very user-friendly. There's a button in the center of the roof—press it once, and the sunroof automatically slides open backward; press it again to close it easily. If you want ventilation without fully opening it, gently push the button upward, and the sunroof will tilt up for airflow. It's very convenient while driving—opening it on sunny days lets in light and lifts the mood. However, note that at higher speeds, wind noise increases, so it's recommended to open it slightly below 60 km/h. Always close it when parked to avoid dust and rain getting in. Regularly clean the tracks to prevent jamming—just use a soft cloth dampened with water. If it gets stuck, don’t force it; first check the fuse box or contact a service center. Overall, the operation is simple and safe, and with proper maintenance, it can last a long time.
