Roof beeping

Hello everybody.
I have a little problem with my 2008 Megane roof.
It sometimes beeps, when i am on a bit rougher road. I even hear some clicking noise from top right, when it beeps, so i assume there is push button, which is not working correctly.
Anyone else came across with this problem recently? It is really annoying, sometimes when i stop on an elevated place(when it is on a flat surface it doesn't happen), i cannot open the boot, because the car thinks that the roof is open.
I hope someone knows where these push buttons are, and know some solution.

Thanks!

There is a catch above your head where you here clicking from it locks the roof in place sounds to me like it is sticking or dry.
When you open roof have a look above the windscreen you will two slots one on your side one on passenger side.
These can collect crap and become stiff give it a clean and lube it the beeping is indicating roof in not fully locked in place so its moving slightly on rough roads setting off alarm same with stowing in boot because this catch has not locked over fully roof ecu thinks roof is already open
The issue is that catch above your head.
