WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: This procedure must be carried out when repairs (including lubrication) are performed on any part of the roof opening panel system.

The glass will move to full tilt position and stop, but do not release the tilt switch.
Continue holding the tilt switch for an additional 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, release the tilt switch. (Continue to step 8.)

Vehicles with new or existing roof opening panel and the glass in the slide, closed or vent range

Press and hold the tilt switch.
The glass panel is driven in the tilt up direction to the tilt up hard stop.
