Exclamation Does the panaroma roof on an 07 have express close?

Does the Panaroma Roof have an express close function?

I know I can get it to open with one touch, but to close it, I have
to hold the button until it closes all the way.

Is there a way that this function can be enabled by the cluster if mine is somehow disabled. Everything else is working perfectly.


Thanks

Don't know about the cluster but I'm pretty sure that if you try and roll your vehicle, before it ends up upside down - the panorama roof will have express closed.

All I want to know is whether the sunroof has an express close feature where I hit the close button once and it closes fully (like every other luxury car on the planet).

Thanks

So no one can tell me whether their pano roof has the express close function?
The W211 E class doesn't from what I was able to search for.

Ditto. Tried to find it for 2 years and just got rid of the R and got an ML. Just kidding, not the primary reason. Not even a factor.

There is no express close for pana roof. I was told that the pana roof does not have sensor that stop or reverse it when it hit an object (for example an arm or a kid's neck). The moon roof version, on the other hand, does have express close function.
