Sunroof Question

If you tilt the sunroof open by pressing the sunroof button in the middle (as opposed to sliding the button), how do you get the sunroof to close (ie, de-tilt)?

The only way that I have been able to get it closed is to slide the sunroof button forward which closes both the shade and roof. And, if I want the shade open, I then have to slide the button backwards to reopen the shade once both the shade and roof are closed.

Seems like you should be able to toggle between tilt and non-tilt, without having to deal with the shade but I cannot figure it out and the manual does not answer my question.

And before anyone says try the search function on this forum, I have.

I think if you briefly slide the switch forward, the "vent" portion closes...if you continue to hold it, the cover will close. Obviously, you can quickly stop the cover after the vent closes too.

right it's a quick push of the button forward to close the tilt. I've never really closed the shade at the same time, even on accident. Which model/year do you have?
