Electric power windows

Opening and closing windows

From radio mode on:

Press the switch until you feel resis-
tance:
The window continues to move down-
ward as long as you continue to hold
the switch

Press the switch beyond the pressure
point:
The window moves downward auto-
matically. Press the switch again to
stop the opening movement.

You can close the windows in the same
manner by pulling the switch.

The electric power windows remain avail-
able for use after the ignition is switched
off:

For approx. 15 minutes with the remote
control unit in the radio mode

For approx. 1 minute in position 0 or
with the remote control unit disen-
gaged.

To open, press the switch beyond the pres-
sure point.

When leaving the vehicle parked,
always remove the remote control

from the ignition lock and close the doors;
this precaution prevents children from
operating the power windows and injuring
themselves, etc.

For information on using the convenience
operation mode at the door lock or with the
remote control unit, refer to page

Safety feature

If the force rises beyond a predefined
threshold during closing, the system will
immediately stop moving the window prior
to lowering it slightly.

Despite this safety feature you should
always inspect the window's travel

path prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the
window would continue closing.
Pulling the switch beyond the pressure
point and holding it limits the response of
the safety feature. Under these conditions
the window will respond to forces beyond a
defined threshold by only opening several
millimeters.
If you again pull the switch past the pres-
sure point and hold it in position within a
period of roughly 4 seconds, the safety fea-
ture will be deactivated.
