Abstract
A method for the operation of the cover of a slide-and-tilt sunroof for closing a roof opening of a vehicle from an open position, at least partially exposing the roof opening is provided. To close it, the cover is slid into the area of the roof opening and moved towards an opening edge of the roof opening, and, after commencement of the movement towards the opening edge of the roof opening, the movement of the cover is driven in such a way that the cover reaches the closed position in the same closing direction as when closing from its elevated position.
