How to close sunroof??
Hi - just tested the global open feature on our new 2018 Discovery HSE LUX. (Press and hold the unlock button on remote for 3 seconds). Works well - but was amazed to see that the sunroof also opens. We didn't know it has a sunroof!
Issue is - how do we close it! There are only 2 buttons on the roof console above the mirror - one for the front panoramic blind and one for the rear one. The manual shows a third button in the middle for sunroof but we don't have that. Can't find anything on menus and as far as I can tell there isn't a global close in America. Help!!! We are stuck with the sunroof open

Land Rover left the middle button that closes the sunroof off of select LUX models. If you wanted to close the sunroof, it cost extra. Call LRNA and tell them you need them to remotely close the sunroof. They will take down your credit card number and bill you.
Only Kidding.
There are a handfull of people on this site with 18’ Discovery’s. Hopefully they can chime in. Read back through the manual and see if you misseed anything. Good luck.

Thanks everyone for the helpful comments. And the laughs too!!
I know it's funny that we didn't know it has a sunroof. But it's not obvious from outside as it's just a giant glass roof. And the instructions show a sunroof open button which we don't have, so I therefore thought there was no sunroof
Anyway - something clearly wrong and our car was assembled with the wrong console unit! That doesn't inspire confidence...
Here is the temporary fix. It's not detailed anywhere in the manual that I could find. But our cars do have a global close feature. Press and hold the door lock button on the drivers door, after 3 seconds of holding it goes into global close and the windows and roof close while your finger is still pressing the button. So - we got it closed!
But - need to fix the issue of missing control buttons inside...
