In the MFD/MFI you will see a new setting in the Convenience menu that is pre-enabled for this option, called 'Rain Closing'.
The car must be locked for this feature to work. The windows and/or sunroof will be closed when either (1) the rain-sensor detects water on the windscreen, or (2) 24 hours elapses since you locked the car. The windscreen wiper stalk must be in the intermittent/automatic position.
